Re: [Skunkworks] 64GB Microsoft Surface Pro will only have 23GB usable
Android also has a lot of bloatware/crapware which I think is worse than MS because you can't uninstall it (without rooting your phone).
Same with MS. The recovery image is already crapware infested so re-installing from it is kind of hitting factory reset on iPad. It goes back to the state you got it from vendor. You can re-install from windows bought directly from MS, but that mean you are another 100 dollars worse. Actually even with android, you have an option. Buy a nexus brand. So back to the original question, what's up with disk usage? Muriithi

I remember a conversation we had some time ago with some blogger friends of mine about the difference between Windows Tablets and Android Tabs is that what they say is internal storage is available fully on Android but on Windows you get a sizeable chunk unusable.
