So recently we've seen the remarkable stories on surface, and how well its doing. This quarter, its sales soared again thanks to strong sales from the Surface Pro 3.

"sales soared again" and "strong sales" are really vague. How about you show us the numbers, and how they compare to sales of iPads and Android tablets?

You can't compare the two, since the Surface Pro 3 is much more expensive. Anyway sales where 713 million dollars, up 44% YOY. 

713 million revenue, so ~1 million tablets, probably less. Meanwhile over 12 million iPads and even more Android tablets were sold. Yeah, Microsoft is clearly winning the "tablet wars".
