Microsoft Discounts ASUS Transformer Book T100TAF 2-in-1 PC By $80
These types of devices began popping up after Windows 8/8.1 arrived. Like the others, the dual-purpose design of the Transformer Book allows the hybrid system to function as a tablet or a laptop with the full version of Windows 8.1 with Bing installed. It also offers up to 11 hours of battery life in between charges.
Other specs include 32GB of built-in eMMC storage, 3-in-1 card reader, micro USB 2.0 port, full-size USB 2.0 port (on detachable keyboard), micro HDMI, headphone output/microphone input combo, 1.2MP webcam, 802.11n Wi-Fi (Miracast enabled), and Bluetooth connectivity.
As an added bonus, the Transformer Book comes with an Office 365 Personal subscription for one year, which itself is a $70 value. You can also be assured that the system will arrive without any junkware or third-party trialware, one of the features of Microsoft's "Signature Edition" designation.
For today only, the Transformer Book is going for $249 at the Microsoft Store, an $80 savings over its normal price of $329. That's a sweet deal, though don't fret if it's not up your alley -- Microsoft's 12 Days of Deals promotion is hooking customers up with savings on various items up through December 19th.
