Surface

This demo's its ability quite well I'd say

It'll be interesting to see what other OEM's dish out. The Surface does look pretty damn swish, it's durability is awesome from the tests they've shown and it's incredibly fast, rocking the same CPU as the HTC one X and other Tegra 3 T30 based tablets / phones - and Steven Sinofsky using it as a skate board was good fun!  :grin:

Can't. Freakin'. Wait.


Reviews are mixed and mostly seem to miss the whole point of Windows 8 entirely or are too used to how Tablet OS's are currently used.

Jay, it'd be really cool if you could an indepth review along with photos when it arrives. It does look good with the ports and all that. Can't wait for third party software to be available.

But will it blend?


I don't think a semi will give the same results
