Microsoft has developed a Windows tablet computer of its own design. Maybe now I can use a table and not have the Android or Apple limitations.
The company on Monday unveiled the Surface, a PC tablet that runs the new Windows operating system called Windows 8. The device is the first commercial PC that Microsoft has directly designed and sold.
The tablethas many of the now-standard tablet specs, including a 10.6 inch high-definition touchscreen and front and rear facing cameras, which all fit into a 9.3 millimeter, 1.5-pound frame.
Surface also brings some new innovations to the tablet area. The device’s cover, for instance, flips down to become a full keyboard. It features a rigid case built from magnesium, a pen that clicks into the tablet and a built-in kickstand.
