Hmmm... (checking)... nope! I don't see where I used the words

"Which users don't really care about any more than they did about CPU "

So you didn't say the above quote?

Earlier you were carping about "price/performance" so the iPad 4 is 25% more expensive but at the

lowend 33% faster and depending on then benchmark 300% faster.

So if users don't care about any of those things, it should be reflected in sales figures by the end of the quarter, right?

Non sequitur duly noted.

How so? You mentioned price/performance -- i.e. a ratio of price to performance. So the iPad 4 is 25% more expensive but has more than 25% better performance -- i.e. it has a better price performance ration.

Are you predicting that users will buy more Nexus 7's than iPads?

LOL!

You'd love an open ended bet such as that, wouldn't you? :)

Can you be a little *more* vague? I noticed the "more iPads" instead

of a more meaningful comparison between

tablets of a similar size.

Well, you claimed to know what people prefer and what they care about -- so now since both Google and Apple offer 7ish inch tablets and 10 inch tablets, peoples preference should be reflected in sales figures shouldn't they?
