It’s just a small table.

I find this kind of thing disingenous at best. Yes…pixel for pixel, it’s much smaller, but that’s because it doesn’t have the retina display, it’s not really smaller. No one things that the iPad 1 and 2 had anything other than lovely displays. The iPad 3 has a much crisper display, but it’s not like the original had a bad display.

The MS Surface has the same pixel density as the iPad 1 and 2. That doesn’t give it a horrible display, it’s just not a retina display. It would be great if it had one…but it doesn’t, and we can judge it based on this point, but this particular screenshot below borders on childish.

Just for fun, I mapped the pixel dimensions of a MS Surface onto the screen of an a new iPad.

For the nerds out there: That’s the surfaces 1366x768 display size bordered in red, inside the iPad’s 2048x1536 display. And I’ve scaled the whole thing down so it more or less fits in a web browser.

Snicker.
