Microsoft Surface Windows RT retails at $199?

In all honesty the only time I actually use the start menu is to access My Computer. Otherwise I rarely use it. Replacing it with a Metro UI seems like no big deal.

If you hit the windows key and e at the same time, you can get to My Computer even faster.

On topic: That's a crazy price. I am honestly pretty tempted. I may just have to pick one up.

Hmm... Thats about the same price as a decent notebook. Is this the price for the model that uses x86 or ARM?

not sure what decent notebook you will get for $200
they go for at least $400

What do you mean? I've seeb tons of Notebooks with Notebook worthy specs for 200 or so.
