It's basically a laptop with a builtin keyboard, and knobs and sliders. It's not any more or less "hardware" than a PC with a midi keyboard and a doepfer drehbank attached to it.
It's a pc, nothing more nothing less.

I completly agree all they are really doing is re-packaging already established methods into a convenient box...i do think it would be a killer Live tool for someone who is primarily in the software world as it COULD add flexibility etc (though to be honest i haven't spoke with many people playing live with soft-stuph...i just haven't found a feasible way to integrate it)
But as we all know it isn't the tools its the mechanic that gets the job done!
