    $900 for, maybe 32 useable GB out of 64 ....

    4 hour battery life ....

    Developer disinterest ....

    Heavy ....

    Sounds like a winner to me!

    No, the battery life on the RT is 9hrs, so 4-5. Not great, but not awful.

    Just goes to show that Intel is indeed not capable of creating power-efficient mobile CPU's

    I think you get about 40GB of usable space.

    The OP appears to be asking about the Pro.

    I would just go by the Windows 8 installation for the Pro. Hopefully we'll see a nice breakdown from the AnandTech review.

    64GB is 59.60GiB with a minimum of 20GB for Win8 puts it at just under 40GiB, but there is some for the VM, it comes with MS Office (right?), and I assume that there are plenty of drivers that simply aren't included so I rounded to 40GB usable space.
