^ These have one huge advantage over the Surface - you can actually use it like a laptop (meaning you can put it on your lap). As cool as the Surface keyboard/cover is, it still requires space on a desk/table to work and room behind for the kickstand. That means it's useless on the train, bus, airplane or even in most university lecture halls that think giving you a big armrest qualifies as a desk.

That said, in a Best Buy filled with $500 laptops, are people going to plunk down over $1,100 for an MSI laptop/tablet?
