Dont Call The New Microsoft Surface RT A Tablet, This Is A PC
The Microsoft Surface RT is a PC. Its not a mobile device and its not a tablet, it's a PC. And Microsofts first self-branded computer. It is, in short, the physical incarnation of Microsoft's Windows 8.The expectations and competition for the Surface are daunting. Its been said that Microsoft built the Surface to show up HP, Dell, and the rest of the personal computing establishment. PC sales are stagnant while Apple is selling the iPad at an incredible pace. But the Surface is something different from other tablets. Microsoft built a PC for the post-PC consumer and chose to power it with a limited operating system called Windows RT. These trade-offs, real or imagined, are what really makes or breaks this device.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/4TR4UTkEzzc/
