MS Surface

Microsoft’s newly-announced Surface tablet is powerful enough to replace your PC, but Microsoft execs told press gathered at the launch in Los Angeles that Surface is a reimagining of the tablet. In fact, Surface is both a tablet and a PC, and will be available in two versions when it ships later this year.
One is Windows RT, the other Windows Pro, running a full version of  Windows 8.


So how does the Surface tablet stack up against the iPad, the current tablet market leader? We don’t have all the specs in yet -- Microsoft didn’t release any information on pricing or availability. They did say "suggested retail pricing will be announced closer to availability and is expected to be competitive with a comparable ARM tablet or Intel Ultrabook-class PC.”
Both Surface devices are expected to be released to manufacturing this summer, and possibly available to the public by late summer.
