Wrong. This one reviewed (the Microsoft giveaway on Build)  runs on i5, which is a full processor, complete with 4GB of RAM and SSD – a full blown computer. You even replied with your stupid comment to someone who wrote the specs. Do you even read the comments before you reply? Do you even know what is i5 and what is ARM?

Windows 8 for tablets runs on devices powered by chips designed by U.K.-based ARM. The desktop version runs on traditional, x86 chips from Intel and AMD.

Because for a pre-beta release that looks pretty awesome to me.  To each his own I guess.

Storage sizes will come in 64gb and 128gb, then we add the Wacom factor and this is the tablet to beat.  Samsung said they plan to ship them starting October 2nd with Windows 7 so keep a look out. Guess I’ll be adding the Developer’s Windows 8 to mine because that video was too enticing yet not showing nearly enough of what the tablet can actually do.

presence of that fan port..ie: battery life and cooling. But overall, a
promising UI. I love the idea of docking and switching to classic view
and then undocking and using the stylus/finger to get around. Really
cool. I just got a $829.99 iPåd2 for only $103.37 and my mom got a $1499.99 HDTV for only $251.92, they are both coming with USPS tomorrow. I would be an idiot to ever pay full retail prices at places like Walmart or Bestbuy. I sold a 37″ HDTV to my boss for $600 that I only paid $78.24 for.

I get a sense he didn’t know what he was doing lol… And 1 of the most important thing I wanted to know was “flash”.. Does this tablet support flash, or is this another Ipad?
