yeah but then you have to use a keyboard and have the screen further away. 10" is too small to use when you add in a keyboard. same reason i hate netbooks

that's why tablets aren't for productivity imo. nice for web browsing and doing research though

What they really need are 13" touchscreen Ultrabooks with a screen that can pivot 360 degrees.

Regardless of the cost, people will still buy it.

As I already mentioned you don't buy an Ultrabook for gaming and GPU intensive applications. If I wanted to game on a laptop I would do so with a Asus, MSI, or Sager. I am not content with DX9 low settings that look like crap.
Besides you can not ignore the poor CPU performance of the A10, which is more important with everyday workstation tasks. Haswell will utterly destroy the A10 in the CPU performance area.
Why were you saying an ultrabook was a desktop replacement, and now changing your mind?

How did I change my mind? All I said was it would be nice to have touchscreen ultrabooks with 360 pivoting screens. An ultrabook cannot replace a desktop they are far too weak. Although if they had touchscreens that pivot 360 degrees, I may consider one over a tablet.

If I wanted a Ultrabook it would be for a desktop replacement like you said. The A10 is not suited to replace a desktop processor. Although I wouldn't game on an ultrabook it would be more of a workstation.

Lol, I'm already using a Llano APU as a desktop replacement.
