@cmarriotti Yeah but touch is still the primary input. And right or not people don't perceive it as a laptop competitor — PolitiTweet.org

@tcarmody Yeah yeah yeah, don't ruin my hope with your talks of money and reality — PolitiTweet.org

@LaurenGoode Also what if Justin Bieber was there too — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@tcarmody Totally! And thanks to iPad Pro most apps work on a big screen, and more and more with keyboards. How is this hard — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

But Apple won't do that because it still believes touch and keyboard can't mix. Which Microsoft, to its credit, has proved absolutely wrong — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@tcarmody I know! They seem to have some allergy to the idea of touch and keyboard, but that's clearly dumb and wrong — PolitiTweet.org

@LaurenGoode Not you too, Lauren. Not you too. — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

@Eric_R_Miller Yeah the app question is huge, and Microsoft has so little history of making it work — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

Oh and if Apple made a gadget that looks like MacBook, does touch/pen like iPad, and runs iOS apps, it would def win this market forever — PolitiTweet.org

@buhdeh With USB-C, you kinda can't win either way right now. Seems smart, but short-sighted, to go with what people still use — PolitiTweet.org

Also, I'm in the market for a laptop and if this thing really gets 14 hours of battery I am WAY into it — PolitiTweet.org

@Techgasms To lots and lots and lots of people — PolitiTweet.org

Microsoft keeps making cool, futuristic devices. Most people just want a kickass laptop. Surface Laptop is exactly that and nothing more — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

Also, don't get it twisted: the Surface Laptop is only "for education" the way the MacBook is "for education." It's meant to take on the Air — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

The Surface Laptop looks great - but a lighter, cleaner, Chromebook-like version of Windows looks hard to pull off https://t.co/vrSLd2uv14 — PolitiTweet.org

@cdohertyk Simplicity. Both are better than texting, but whatsapp is so simple and fast that anyone could happily use it — PolitiTweet.org

David Pierce @pierce

I've learned two things on this trip: paying for everything with your phone is the best, and if you don't have WhatsApp you totally suck — PolitiTweet.org
