For those smart enough to turn on defender and set autoupdate.
iOS was just patched, one model (the iPhone 4s) and the patch was a 23mb file. a far cry from the hundreds of mb needed to be downloaded on "Patch Tuesday" every month for Windows myriad of issues. Microsoft! START OVER!!! Stop spending money on goofy ads and pay for the top apps to be ported to RT!
Yes - with those points I'll agree, but they are par for the course if you want a "real" computer on the go. I hope they come out with some kind of keyboard/battery system very soon.
And FWIW; my three units arrived today (amazingly), still find the whole process very poorly managed.
Glad they got there.
