>$500 iPad3 or $800 for Windows transformer tablet? An ipad does not replace a laptop, the devices aren't equivalent.

  For some prospective users it is an acceptable replacement (since most casual users have friends with a "real" computer that they can turn to occasionally) and for some purchasers it is not.

    Sure, Asus just announced another Windows device to fill that need. http://blogs.nvidia.com/2012/06/asus-nvidia-unveil-worlds-first-windows-rt-consumer-device/ http://blogs.nvidia.com/2012/06/asus-nvidia-unveil-worlds-fi...

    And for some people a bike is acceptable (friends have a car), but i don't compare it to the price of a car. This is an ivy bridge with a full HD screen, dedicated graphics, SSD option. Chances are it will be faster than the current MBP. It is not for 'casual users'.
