I meant cheap for what it is (or seems to be).

I meant cheap for what it is (or seems to be).
- Nerdfest 12y agoStrange, I think it's the opposite. That's a lot of money for an i3 with little memory. It's cheap next to a MacBook Air perhaps, but still quite expensive.
- joshstrange 12y agoMacBook Air base model ($900): * 1.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor * Turbo Boost up to 2.7GHz * Intel HD Graphics 5000 * 4GB memory * 128GB PCIe-based flash storage The base Surface is cheaper than the Air but the second tier Surface (The one with more or less parity) is $100 more than the Air.
- slantyyz 12y agoDon't forget that with the Surface, you're also paying a premium for the touchscreen and digitizer with pen, which is not available on an MBA. Edit-- removed the word "Wacom", turned out to be a false assumption.
- kayoone 12y agohowever for $100 more you get a High DPI touchscreen and a digital pen but the GPU (HD4400) is a bit slower.
