Thus the Surface pro has no appeal to users like myself.

I don't think anyone is trying to say that the surface is for everyone. Of course there will be a need for high-powered desktop type computers. But there is also a need for small compact yet "fully functional" computers. A tablet is great for some things, but it is limited if you need the full functionality of a full OS.
As far as price range goes the surface is right there with other devices in it's class. If it's more than you want to spend, then OK...don't buy it. That doesn't mean it is not worth what they are charging.
I don't understand why people feel the need to post negative comments about an item (any item) when the only thing they say is "it's not what I need/want". It's like me going onto a cross-stitchers forum (there's got to be one of those somewhere right) and posting that the latest and greatest frame or cloth is just not for me....instead of giving a valid critique of the item itself.
