He's right about that, though. The Windows RT Surface is rumored to cost at least $600, and that's with only a 1366x768 resolution display, and a Tegra 3 chip. A similar tablet with Android would go for $400 at most. By the time Surface gets released, they will cost $300, so half the price.

Plus, Windows RT/Metro has no ecosystem yet, whatsoever. Even if Android has only a few thousand or whatever tablet apps, it still has all the other 500,000 phone apps, and most of them should work on tablets.
