Instant on -- Windows 8 (supposedly) will boot in less than 10 seconds. For me, that is sufficient. But even if it weren't sufficient, are you saying that instant on capability should be uniquely a tablet feature?

The question was what features either are or should be unique to the tablet. Instant on doesn't seem to me to be a feature that should be unique to a tablet. I'll grant that my desktop can't be truly portable, but at least all the hard drives in my desktop are removable and thus the brains of my desktop are portable.
