Aw... I was hoping Dell was putting out newer Windows 8(.1) tablets, especially after seeing Don's gaming review on the Windows Venue.

"While in transit, you can enjoy your favorite movies and shows on the brilliant HD and Full HD displays, optimized for brighter, better viewing angles."

The Venue 8 carries a resolution of 1920 x 1200, not 1280 x 800 like you've written.

Reread you source you are way off on the venue 8 specs

The previous Venue 8 had 2 GB of RAM. Why would they upgrade the display and processor while reducing the RAM?

Got the pricing wrong, too -- it's $159.99 for the 7 and $199.99 for the 8. Shouldn't copy and paste old articles. The 1 GB RAM is not a major thing, BTW. It will run just fine but your apps may take a few seconds longer to load. Dell made some pretty major upgrades for what is essentially a budget tablet -- they had to cut corners somewhere to make their price point.

I did, I'm not talking about the $250 Dell Venue 8 Pro tablet, I'm talking about the $159 for the 7". Microsoft offered OEMs free Windows 8.1 on tablets under 8", so they "could" install Windows on a $159 one
