@arstechnica think book plus line continues to innovate with totally new idea each year. The device is not for me but perhaos one day we can see a dual cpu device when you need that extra layer of computing. Perhaps for running WSL.

@arstechnica If it's almost the price of a Windows laptop plus an Android tablet, I wonder if there is any benefit other than (maybe) the weight advantage being slighly lighter than carrying both separately.

@arstechnica I've been waiting for a new detachable since the demise of the Surface Book line, but I'm not sure this is it. Points for a USB-C port on the tablet bit, though!

@arstechnica Boxing with Windows bugs now with failover to Android. It’s amazing how much time can you waste on platforms with one device 😳
