Why are you calling out pl001 for his claim of "proof" and yet ignored RZetlin's claim?

Just because you can't prove a negative doesn't give one a free pass in making THOSE claims.

Regarding...
1. Best tablet browser - depending upon your definition of "best", I'd say that a tablet browser that has the option of displaying a full "desktop version" of a website, play flash, and supports adblock is better than those that don't.

2. Best support - too nebulous to comment intelligently on.

3. Best build quality - Again very subjective, but a sleek vaporMg casing with gorilla glass certainly ranks near the top (if not AT the top)

4. Best multitasking - again, depending upon your definition of "best", I'd say that a tablet that can have multiple windows visible all playing smoothly simultaneously is better than tablets that can't do that.

5. Best office productivity - MS Office that is missing macro support in Excel... are you honestly going to argue that there is something better than that on a tablet? (If you suggest something like remote desktop or splashtop, you'll lose credibility)

6. Best file management - iOS has no file management. I could agree that Android's file management is on par with WinRT.

7. Best connectivity using industry standards - again, a tablet that supports full USB, mini-HDMI, and microSD is better than tablets that don't.

Frankly, I dislike these "well my dad can beat your dad" type of shoving matches.
