Take my 12" Eee PC with NVIDIA ION graphic with win7 and add a REAL ssd, like a m series g2 with TRIM and now you're talking. At least you will get USB ports (and HDMI) and can run any software you like. People will install iPads because they are simple and/or because they are brainwashed hipsters. I'm going to do a double screen mount and build a car pc. I've built many custom gaming PC's for thousands less than retail. I've even priced out a system from < $1500 that would blow both the factory nav and the iFail out of the water (with Xonar DX2 sound too). Oh and you can upgrade it too and remove the battery if there's ever a problem!
So don't buy one. If you were truly happy with your setup you wouldn't feel the need to bash someone else's choice. People buy what they want, free market for the MFW
