So, the Chromebook is a laptop not a tablet and runs ChromeOS which is not Android and can't run windows programs and on top of that you have to carry a ssd to have it work offline... is this real? Why would anyone buy that?

Again, a big appeal of Surface is the keyboards and its laptop replacement capability. (however there is a NExus10 with the same specs as this ChromeOS if you want to compare directly to tablet).

You don't have to carry around any harddrive. Its built in to the device. THe "built-in" part under RT was to point out that like other laptops, the samsung can be upgraded easily whereas the surface is like iPad and you're stuck with what it comes with.
