It's part of their trademark to have a crash every few presentations.

And I think they are just telling their partners to make a good tablet - they came out with the 'Slate' in 2000 and not one partner made a good one - so they are showing them what they want in one.

It would be nice to have a tablet, that has a keyboard, that is a real powerful computer. I would chose it over a laptop.

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

Tell me a funny joke!

I wonder how many backups they had strategically hidden behind stage.

If this actually bothers anyone who wants one of these (after the conference I do!) that is pretty weak.

LOL that's got to be embarrassing. Maybe one day MS will figure out how to showcase a product without something bad happening during the showing :P
