It would seem alot of people dont really understand Surface.

1. Surface RT is the tablet pitched against Ipad. And surface RT does more and has more functionality and features. Surface RT does what it set out to do.

2. Surface Pro is a replacement for your laptop and your tablet. A High end laptop + buying a tablet would cost you around or over 1000. But means you have to navigate and contend with 2 devices. Surface pro offers what those 2 do seperately on 1 device. Its high powered like an ultrabook and light and swift like a tablet.

It is worth its price. If you wanted Ipad prices that was what RT was for. An Ipad but better. For the same price.

Ford could create a hybrid muscle car and SUV but that doesn't mean it is a good idea or that there is a market for it ...

Beyond that, you can buy a Nexus 10 for $400 and a 15 inch laptop with a Core i5 and 6GB of memory for around $600 which doesn't make the surface much of a "value"; especially for people who see the surface as being an inferior tablet than the Nexus 10 and an inferior laptop to the Core i5.

When I used the Surface I couldn't help but think if the Zune, a device with some interesting ideas that were mostly poorly executed and was years behind the competition in the features consumers actually care about.

Nexus 10 dont run Win applications and a $600 laptop wont be touchscreen .. so yes you can happily juggle between two devices or get ONE AND USE THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS.

P.S

According to this logic..hybrid vehicles shouldn't be there.. right ?  So the new hybrids that all car manufacturers are releasing that run on both petrol as well as electricity isn't a good idea.. THEY SHOULD EITHER MAKE PETROL OR ELECTRIC VEHICLE ? 

OR the handheld consoles ? hybrid between casual gaming as well as serious gaming..they are bad idea too.

Microsoft know about what is good and what the future holds much better than you.They are not a new startup. they have been revolutionising the computing world for decades !
