But then mac did it and million of mac fan boys spent to much money for a below average product which the android and hp touchpad is superior in many ways They do have a viable product there’s been plenty of people using the demo and they love it and 10 years ago windows realized the first tablet but everyone thought tablets were dumb.

Nice try MSFT. It also looks like it was designed by someone with Attention Deficit Disorder. It is very telling that MSFT would demo a product in their "design room" filled with clutter, which looks just like this interface, filled with clutter and lack of organization. Can you imagine Apple demoing a product with such clutter? The beauty of Apple is that they strip all the clutter and complexity away, not add a graphical layer on top of a crap OS doing the same old thing.

What exactly is your point again? Classic MSFT - they get hung up in their own underwear with their "legacy". And MSFT Surface? Really? Basically conceptual product with minimal application and very limited market. Think before you jump into a conversation. And as to Apple, "didn't even know what touch tablets were about or iPhone was about..."? What kind of moronic statement is that. These are the two market leading products in their respective categories BY FAR, with MSFT practically non-existent, so what exactly is it that they didn't know? Time to go back to school Anirudh!
