    Default Windows 8 Tablet VS iPad 2

    Microsoft’s OS of the future will make its way to a range of devices, but all eyes are on one market in particular: tablets. Microsoft is beyond focused on proving that it can compete in the tablet space, which is currently dominated by Apple’s iPad line. WinRumors sat down with an Apple iPad 2 running the latest iOS 5 beta and a Windows 8 tablet prototype on Thursday, and spent nearly 11 minutes comparing the two slates on camera.......

    It's not Apple that should be worried about Windows 8, I sincerely doubt it will kill the iPad. Now what I do think is Windows 8 is a massive threat to Android tablets, or any other non-Apple tablet for that matter.

    Windows 8 Tablet is looking good. I see a whole lot of potential in the making. If only the Tiles had a smoother finish, maybe like a little softer 3D ish effect especially on the edges.

    Really why do you say that with the exception of not being able to play mkv videos I don't see any other really limitations to android, and at least for now we don't have to run an antivirus on it
