Indeed. OS and crapware taking a few GB's off a 2 TB hard disk is one thing. Taking 16 GB's off of advertised 32 GB flash storage is outrageous. This is false

  I think they get screwed either way. You say it has 16GB and then once you turn it on and it says 32GB in the system screen, now people are pissed your OS and apps take up too much room. Tell people its got 32GB and then they find out they only have 16GB of actual storage and they get pissed for you misrepresenting the actual storage amount. I'm sure this will be settled quietly out of court with a nice undisclosed amount for said lawyer.

  @at-fates-hands: "You say it has 16GB and then once you turn it on and it says 32GB in the system screen, now people are pissed your OS and apps take up too much room." That simply does not happen. The inverse, in which people expect to be able to store plenty of media and apps but can't, does. Most users won't even know that it's the OS that's taking up that much space, but they'll know to blame Microsoft.
