I want to know if it is a 1.0 quad core or a 1.5 or a 2.0 quad core. I am happy with my overclocked Iconia for now, but maybe mid 2012 I will be ready to trade up (after having the Iconia for one year). By then I want 64 gb internal storage with full SD card for 64 gb more and I also want a 2.5 quad core processor with 1080p resolution 10" screen for $400.00. Then I will trade up!

Couldn't they just make a touch screen laptop again? just when I was in the market to buy one of those they stopped making the things. couple of years later... WhAM! They come out with this thing called a tablet. A wafer that people complain about having issues typing on with any speed or constant correction. So some go out & buy a keyboard for their 'tablet'... lo & behold... what do we have again, but a damned laptop with a touchscreen!

mumble,mumble,grumble...

Well... yeah... but it kind of defeats the purpose of my old man rant. I like the design, don't get me wrong, but if I'm going to have all that stuff (refer back to OFB rant 2 panels earlier). Plus, the optical drive, hard drive, blah, blah... you get the argument & the fact I'm being winy. Kind of like the song said, "the good old days weren't always good & tomorrow isn't as bad as is seems", well, I'm just arguing for a bit of keeping it simple here. That's all.
