[citation][nom]tuannguyen[/nom]You still don't get it do you.You seem completely lost on the very underlying concept of how these products came to be. You don't seem to have a very deep understanding of how these companies work. I've been in this industry working for 15 years, working directly with these companies day in and day out. To call me a "macboi" when this article was all about how HP can beat the iPad, just goes to show, you completely missed the whole point of the article. Completely.Relying on Windows isn't enough. Relying on people to KNOW that they can get all of this without being tied down to Apple's stuff, is not enough. Apple HANDS deliver all of these things to the majority populus, and that's why it wins at the consumer level. Because most consumers, DON'T KNOW, or are LAZY.The tablet battle is far bigger than any single one device. But you probably don't understand that do you? You probably think it's down to Windows vs. iPhone OS, specs, USB ports, and CPU speed, don't you? It probably frustrates you to think how is it possible that you might not get what I said in the article right? That's why you're mouthing off behind your wall of anonymity? I don't think I'm going to even bother explaining the rest to you since you obviously have no respect.Ciao./ Tuan[/citation]
Clearly you didn't read my next post... You come off as a macboi (and I know you're fan so don't get defensive) in the article. You didn't explain the "ease of use" points until the comments section (which is a pain in the ass to read these days). My second comment there concedes your point. Yes, most consumers are stupid and need things simplified for them. HP should take the opportunity to run their own app store but they'd make it even better if they didn't tie it to the hardware. Make it something like steam or impulse where it actually draws from the web, make the store web accessible too, make it an amazon competitor at the same time as the app store. Then you're talking. Now, back to your comments. Who actually reads all the comments (especially now that they've fukked the comment system) before posting their comment. You should have posted that pov in your article instead of having to justify it after the fact in the comments section. You really do come off as macboi in your article. Read it again. "Mouth off" ha, for calling you a macboi? I been reading articles and tips on Tom's since '99. I've been "in the biz" professionally for 14 years and I think I know the markets just as well as you and I've earned my right to have an opinion.
