Yeah, I think you might have missed the point. This is a windows-based PC. Windows gamers aren't big on playing first-person shooters with analog sticks.

Racing titles are fine with them, but given the choice who would play Far Cry 2 with a gamepad over mouse/keyboard? Who is going to play an MMO with a gamepad? That's the PC market, and that's who the Edge is being targeted at.

Unbelievable this company would put as much into a project as this and even consider such a low end display. This should have a display equal to the Ipad retina. It doesn’t even come close to the 8.9” kindle fire HD. Sad they would cut corners considering the target audience and the price they plan on selling it for.

Waiting for Haswell and/or Iris Pro graphics in a similar form factor.
