Perhaps the quote was going for build quality, which the Surface RT did well in. I agree though that the processor speed + software failed it :( Windows improvements + cpu improvements in Surface 2 make the experience much, much nicer. No longer do you tap a "new email" icon and wait 2 seconds for the action to register. The fact that it used to behave like that continues to blow my mind. Go to a best buy or Microsoft store and play around with a Surface 2. You'll see that it's much better than the Surface RT, though I understand if you're reluctant to drop another ~500 dollars on the same brand. At least for now...
