Those prices are ridiculous for all you're getting (it's worth remembering the OS will eat into the meagre drive space, and the RAM's pathetic). A woman might be able to fit it in a handbag if that's a consideration, but male or female just about anyone else should buy an ultrabook for a bit more money and double or triple the specs for all the real world difference in weight.

Unless you really need the weight advantage and can live without mod cons, I can't really see the benefit over the current market offerings :?

The price around the same as the equivalent Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 - similarly, specified, but older and not as powerful.

I had the 11" Samsung SmartPC 500, which had an Atom processor 2 generations older, 2GB RAM and 64GB EMC and that was fine for basic Office use, browsing and casual gaming.

Should be better than trying to load it on a VM box - everything about those boxes is geriatric.

I've never even used a Sky box for more than a minute... We're VM and I've no desire to watch it either. All hail the internet!
