Re: More CNET bias - Surface Pro 2 "Comparing the Surface Pro to the iPad can get pretty ugly"
It is sad and comical that the anti-Apple contingent accuses Apple of "boutique pricing"... overcharging for the privilege of buying an Apple product, but when Microsoft sells a device for an equal or greater price for a competing product, suddenly Apple's pricing becomes "reasonable".
People need to be consistent. Either Apple products are overpriced or they aren't. If they are overpriced, then Microsoft's products of comparable prices for comparable hardware are overpriced too.
Yes. Because it isn't $1000 for the SP2. It's $1130 (you need to add a TypeCover2)If Apple can charge $1000 for a MBAir with 720p resolution 11-Inch NON-TOUCH Screen, 4th Gen i5, 128GB SSD and 4GB RAM is the SP2 with 10.6 1080p TOUCH-SCREEN, 4th Gen i5, 128GB SSD, 4GB RAM for $1000 really expensive???
