Does it come with a magnifying glass?

1368x768 seems like the perfect resolution for 13.3"/14" laptops...

One of the nice changes in Win 8 is MS has significantly improved how Windows scales on high-res screens, so it shouldn't be an issue.

Not sure how Samsung "pwned" (seriously? people still say that?) Apple though, considering this is just a prototype while every news source and their dog has Apple releasing a 227ppi MBP 13 with Retina within the next few months.

You got all your aligator mouths backwards.

Retina? Doesn't Apple have patents for that?

Retina is actually an LG thing.

No one claimed that all PC games see a piracy rate of 95% or that it's the same for all games. Ubisoft didnt publish crysis so no, no one claimed that Crysis was pirated 60 million times.

Your edit doesn't change anything I said. And anyone that believes the legit to pirated copy ratio is that high has serious cognitive problems.

The universe is not infinite, if it were, every direction you look would be light, and since there is not light in all directions, the universe is not infinite.

I can't believe that some of you think that for every 5 copies sold there are 95 pirated copies.

That is so illogical as to make me think you are all just trolling.

given the 95% of all copies are pirated number:

If there is 3 million sales of Crysis and that is only 5% of the game out there then there are 60 million pirated copies?

That is completely unbelievable.

Steam is not indicative of the entire market. In fact, it isn't even indicative of the entire enthusiast market so the numbers aren't the be all Gospel. As to your second point, it does nothing but validate mine: average Joes and Janes will typically buy Intel because their brand name is so strong.

Also, get your facts straight. I didn't get mine at Walmart, I got it at Toys'R'Us. Fisher price model son.

Steam hardware survey is a perfect data pool to pick from, from a statistical standpoint. Perhaps you need to freshen up on your stats (have you ever taken statistics?)

It is a random sample from the entire steam community, it is about as a properly conducted random survey as you will find.

It's not perfect at all. It's a market that caters only to gamers and even those gamers have to be using steam in the first place. You still have a large majority of people who use computers for other tasks and who game casually without the use of digital distribution. The more accurate market share statistic corresponds to overall sales of hardware, as those log volume of shipments.

All you had to say was:

"I never took statistics and do not understand it"
