Less data. I don’t want there to be so many karts, and I want to have to play with every character to figure out how each one works.

More characters. Blow it out, go nuts — give me 50 options, every random Nintendo character ever should be playable, and have unique things they can do. Maybe special items, even?

Battle upgrades. I feel like racing gets all the love, but let’s go back to popping each other’s balloons.

Yep! Added a note above — the battery on this thing should last forever, literally.

That’s really encouraging to hear! I hope the same is true here for sure.

No! I actually like the look, a lot, and I say so. But it doesn’t matter how it looks if it creaks in your hands, or gives every time you type on the keyboard. A broken laptop is a 0 / 10, so let’s say I’m hedging my bets here.

Money’s no object? Probably the Kirabook — that screen is gorgeous, and it handles the low-res-ness of Windows better than the VAIOs in some places. But MAN is it expensive, and if I were buying one I’d probably end up with the VAIO Pro.

SO. I initially believed each Pro model only came in one color, which led me to hate the Pro extra because its silver look hurts the keyboard and aesthetic experience. BUT it turns out you can buy both in both colors. I’m sorry for the error, and I’ve updated the post (and the score for the Pro 11) to reflect the actual information.

The Pro 11 isn’t great no matter what, but the silver coloring is a huge part of the problem too.

Sorry for the mix-up :(

It’s easily the Windows 8 laptop I’m most excited about. I keep waiting on Lenovo to send me one, but I’m pretty close to just buying one and going with it. I really, REALLY liked the one I got to spend a few minutes with at CES.

I do think you’re right about the carbon fiber – I doubt most people will break their laptops, but it’s a pretty disconcerting feeling. And having your laptop flex every time you type on it is just unpleasant.

And someday, when Microsoft kills the Desktop and leans all the way into Metro, I think it’ll work. But for now, too many apps, and just about every user I know, relies on Desktop. And Desktop gets ugly here.

I’m convinced if Sony hadn’t been so hell-bent on being the thinnEST and lightEST, these could be great. There are just too many sacrifices to get there, for now.
