Extravagant iPhone Case Artwork Comes with a Price to Match

Word out of CES is that Intel execs revealed their true feelings about Windows 7 on tablets. Apparently, they lobbied for Microsoft to make a more tablet-friendly OS. Microsoft said no.

 According to Cnet, here's what Tom Kilroy, Senior Vice President of Marketing, had to say:

"Hey, we tried to get [Microsoft] to do a tablet OS (operating system) for a long time. Us, and others like Dell," said Tom Kilroy, senior vice president and general manager of Intel's Sales and Marketing Group, speaking to CNET at an Intel function last night.

Looks like we're not the only ones who think full-blown Win 7 on a tablet is a bad idea.

    On the other hand. A computer tablet rather than an app tablet would be kick-ass. I don't think were their though.

    I think a Windows 7 tablet would be good (compared to the iPad).

    Innovation is where the money's at. And more stupid people than smart people spend their money on silly things. If they can make more money selling "user friendly" tablets I'd say go for it.
