    For me the iPad's main selling point (and what made me get it over an Android tablet) was the sheer number of apps it had vs. Android. Probably a good 20x more!
    But then.. .How many "apps" does Windows have? 10,000x more.

    N64 emulation on my new tab? Yes. iPad? Nope.
    Flash? Check.
    Expandable memory? Check.
    Need I go on?

    Much faster CPU/GPU? Check.
    Twice as much RAM? Check.
    Faster boot time? Check.
    Built in HDMI out? Check.
    Can install other operating systems? Check.
    Can use any accessory any other PC can such as mice keyboards game controllers and more? Check.
    IS A WINDOWS PC, so I can sync my iPod to it if I want? Check.
    More still?

    I love the way you are fanboying about Apple.

    Also, can I ask then, what advantages an iPad has over my tablet?
    Lets see.
    *Better battery life
    *Thinner, lighter.

    Yep thats about it.

    Is that RAM necessary? No.
    Is the faster CPU/GPU necessary in an iPad 2? No. It has great integration between hardware and software.
    Does anybody actually use HDMI out? Not really other than photos and sometimes videos they made.
    Operating systems? How well is it going to work on an ARM based device? Not that well.
    Are you going to use a game controller and mouse? Doubt it.
    Will you sync your iPod? Doubt it. Most people need larger space for their libraries.

    How is the CPU/GPU not faster? Ghz/#cores arent the only thing that matter.
    I use HDMI out on my laptop all the time, and a lot of people do.
    ARM device? It's an AMD C-50. It can run just about any windows, linux, unix, or other operating system you want.
    Why wouldn't I use a game controller or mouse? It's much better than gaming on a touchscreen, which, by the way, is the ONLY thing you can do with 99% of iPad games.

    None of your arguements make sense.

    I suppose I should say something stupid about what iPad has that this tablet doesnt, but the only such thing is iOS itself.

    Why are you on the android forums if you hate android anyway? Just get the hell out.

    None of it is necessary. It's just geek eye-candy. "My tablet is better because it's quad core. :D" "Well, I have an iPad. Can you do this this this?" "No... I don't have those apps... I can get the free version though! They kind of look like crap though..."
