  • Dual purpose charger
  • Intel Processor
  • HDMI monitor port for home/desk
  • Microsoft Apps store
  • Ability to install any Windows 7 compatable applications (okay – this is the number one reason)
  • 128GB solid state storage/drive (okay – this is the 2nd best)
  • USB 3.0 port
  • The great features of the Surface RT (3rd best reason)
  • 4+ hour battery life

$1,099 gets you the keyboard and 128GB model – in essence a dual machine – a tablet and an ultra-book!  This will redefine what type of work (and play) you can take on the go (either in the office or out).
