What are kids usin' these days for class laptops?

[WRXtranceformed]

spent a good amount of time with an ipad 2 this weekend.

impressions. slippery and uncomfortable to hold. i guess a case is required.
same footprint as my 11" laptop, about half the thickness.

internet browsing was surprisingly slow and sluggish considering this is the faster dual core chip.
browser also locked up twice in 10 minutes

lack of multitasking is maddening. feels like a media player toy, not a real computer

for slightly more thickness an ultraportable laptop is a million times better. consider me unconverted, Im still in the "makes no damn sense" camp.
So I dont plan on picking up a tablet, even the touchpad

FWIW, I have none of these issues with the Android Transformer. You can turn it into a laptop with the optional keyboard too, if you really wanted.
