Damn that's expensive . Most businesses I've dealt with over the years tend to opt for the cheapest laptop configurations they can get away with. I cannot imagine Tesco, BP, NatWest, etc lining up to buy devices in the £1500 range.

On a separate note, what happens to Intel when every legacy programme is re-tooled to Arm?

It seems like WoA is on a roll. Plenty of new devices available, the windows Arm store is looking healthy, WoA adoption is high, etc... Where does that leave x86, say 3-5 years from now?
