This is the part that I think most have missed.
That the Tablet wont just be a tablet. It has the ability to be a full funcioning OS when seated at a workstation and keyboard. It does not remote into a virtual WINDOWS environment to get work done.
The Author, ( sorry but you did) missed that point when saying that people dont care about the hardware. They do. When you only need 1 device, to use a portable battery sipping tablet, and a full functional workstation... the ability to select hardware or core usage IS IMPORTANT.
I mean seriously, only a mactard would think that using 1 device ( tablet for 600 bucks) and MACBOOK ( 1200 bucks) - to use as a desktop and remote into a hosted windows platform ( about 1000 bucks for work hardware and licensing per user) to get work done ---- is a good value. Not when you can have 1 device that is 1000 bucks and have virtual apps ( like MS APPV) be used to push to end devices, acts as a tablet and workstation.
