Asus Has a Transformer Book T100 Too

[exfileme]

This model is similar to the Transformer Book Trio, but doesn't have the second Android OS and the additional PC components in the keyboard dock.

I stopped reading at "1366 x 768 resolution". In my book...FAIL. I guess I should have stopped reading at "Atom".

Not everyone needs ultra-HD and an i7-4960X.

The T100 might not have the most amazing specs but it would likely be more then good enough for more than half the people I know.

it's better than 720p. I presume you're expecting 1080p. I have only used tablets very briefly, so I'm not well informed on this particular topic: does 1080p make a big difference over 768p on a 10" screen with finger marks on it?

It might make a difference on 10".

At 7" looking at my N7v1 and N7v2 side by side though, the 50% higher H+V resolution on the v2 does not impress me that much. Sure, small details are slightly sharper but once you zoom in to a comfortable reading size (I use my tablets for reading 90% of the time), the improvement becomes negligible. The only place where the improvement is very noticeable is 3D games where the smaller pixels make aliasing much less distracting.

The Trio was a dumb idea. I'm actually quasi-interested in this T100 though.

And TBH, I'm perfectly satisfied with the spec'd resolution. I'd rather my processing power and battery life go elsewhere, than driving an unnecessarily high PPI that I personally couldn't care less about.

Does Bay Trail support Linux? Could you install Ubuntu on this?

I love your tablets ASUS, but sheesh the tablet market is so saturated. There is at least 10 tablets by ASUS. The Nexus 7 tab is cheaper and has more features than the more expensive MeMO pad.

This is best economy class win8.1 tablet so far! Ofcourse better resolution would be nice, but then the price would be 600$ and we would talk about guite different equipment. What this mean is that we finally are getting windows tablets at reasonable price! It allso means that there will be more models between Surface pro and this one in the future!

Sure, until a company like Apple decides to dictate that high resolution is a must-have (like its current iPad with 2048 x 1536 resolution) for even the most mundane of tasks.

I really hope the reviews are good.. this is exactly what I would like... getting tired of mobile operating systems on tablets..
