Microsoft Announces "Surface" Tablet (1 Viewer)

I'm old or something

none of these new tablets (android, ipad, ms) do anything for me. Same as the phones at this point, none of these announcements make me care.

:getoffmylawn:

perhaps technology has passed me by.

Not good for a software developer :bag:

There's no ground breaking hardware technology. I'm a microsoft silverlight/wpf developer though so all the new windows 8 stuff regardless of the hardware is right up my alley. as long as ms is the big fish in the line of business space, i'm golden.

No, you're right. Tablets suck. I can't get into them at all. I just want a smartphone and a laptop.

I love my iPad.
They make great TV remote controls, bathroom readers, bedroom movie watching.

I liked mine for the first month or so.

better for laying on the couch and reading as well
 
"It was important that we have the hardware fade to the background for this product. It's all about Windows 8."

Yet nearly the entire presentation has been about the hardware design. :confused:

I guess if I read - maybe...
 
no offense to anyone but I'm not digging Win 8 at all. I warmed up to 7 eventually but 8 - not feeling it.

XP is still the best

 
Nintendo Wii >>> MS Kinect
You played either of these gaming systems?
Yes. Microsoft jumped on motion gaming bandwagon after Wii created the market.(I didn't mean the ">>>" to say better than. Each example shows Microsoft again being late to market.)
Of all the people here as an Apple guy, this shouldn't be an issue for you.
It's not a problem for me. It's simply an example of Microsoft chasing the puck.And I've been an Xbox gamer for years and years. :shrug:

 
You're not missing anything. The video contained no information. Just cheesy music and artsy shots of Buckyballs or parts from ball bearings or something.
I didn't realize there was a video until you mentioned it. Doesn't play in Chrome. I had to dust of IE and look at it from there.
I played it in Chrome, but I didn't realize it was there until Leeroy Jenkins mentioned it. It takes a while to load, and then the "play" button shows up eventually.

Goon. I love you and your apple insight and info.. But you don't always need to be so pro-apple and a Debbie downer. I say this as I type on my new iPad. New good and innovative products and tech are awesome no matter whose sticker or etching is on it.
