The media following Microsoft has been constantly discounting on iPad as
too ordinary, too bulky, too clunky. Many have said that HP’s slate is far more
superior device that Apple’s iPad. So here we are going to unveil why Apple
is still of advantage then HP, and here’s why.
1. Windows 7 a operating system was never made for touch-based platforms. The most common criticism in iPad I have ever seen is the operating system itself. While I agree its user interface needs some tuning but putting a full on operating system with a device which has limited hardware is totally useless. And no matter how convenient is to run a full Windows based application, Windows 7 aren't built for touch world which makes the device total useless.2. Slate not lighter or smaller than the iPad. Paul Thurrott a renowned technology reporter criticized the iPad for its heavy weight. Having picked up and actually played with the device myself, I firmly believe this criticism is not at all warranted. Yes its has some weight but then iPad is meant to be cradled in your lap. And don’t expect HP slate to be any lighter. The difference is almost negligible; HP Slate is only slightly smaller and a bit thicker.
