Tim Cook thinks Microsoft's Surface Book is ‘deluded'

In your opinion, do you think this is a fair criticism from Apple? Keeping in mind that a year or so ago Apple discredited the Surface line up as somewhat 'useless' and then they come out with a product EXACTLY the same. Is it going to happen again, first the beating of the Surface Book then the copying?

That is

RICH WITH HYPOCRISY

considering he can't even release a pro version of a tablet with a desktop OS on it, even though its direct competitor did that already.

 

Tim Cook, you're a goddamn buffoon for that statement.

Given their patent for a surface-book type laptop?

Tim Cook is spewing a load of bile. Does he honestly think that his ARM SoC will beat a current-generation x86 processor paired with a 950M, a decently capable notebook GPU? If he does, he is sorely mistaken, and I can't wait to see him choke on his words.

 

He knows Apple hasn't a leg to stand on in this comparison, so he's just spouting a load of rubbish.

I still have a 4S, so even if I wanted it, it'd be useless to me.
