Don't be That Jackass

TechnoBuffalo on why the Surface Pro 4 is their favorite tablet:

I post this video because I think that it's a valid opinion that deviates from my own. They just ran another piece about how the iPad Pro is a disappointment and is not a laptop replacement.

In Jon’s opinion, the iPad Pro is Apple’s lame attempt at a Surface Pro knockoff—but it falls well short of Microsoft’s hybrid.

I won't deny that the Surface Pro does more than the iPad Pro, but I don't think that means it's better. I'm more productive on iOS than I am on Windows, so what do I care if the Surface has more Windows features?

But I'm not saying that my opinion or needs are the same for everyone. Jon Rettinger has different needs from me and has different preferences. Just don't be the jackass who blindly discounts the stuff you don't like.
