I hate that it's all going so easy for Apple. They are far too huge.

From almost dead to crush everything in less than a decade. It's unfair.

Meanwhile MS is struggling. Surface will fail and Win Phone 8 will fail. No one simply cares.


I'm pretty much certain that Surface will NOT fail. It will be huge

It won't. The product itself looks great but the name is weak and people dislike Mirosoft all over the world, it's a fact. And it will be expensive, more than 500 Dollars probably.

You can feel the cock down the guy's throat as he was writing all that down.

It will, and I'd be willing to bet in it.

"people dislike Microsoft all over the world" - that is simply not true... The Mircosoft brand is huge ALL OVER THE WORLD

Also, 300-800 dollars is not expensive for a top of the range tablet



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

No HD display, no NFC and OS that is showing it's age... truly ahead of competition.


Retina display is HD....

iOS 6 is released today...so it's not old by any means...lol?

It's not HD based on the official classification. It has a very high pixel density though so it doesn't matter much

But yeah, I think price should be talked more about in reviews. This phone is way more expensive than alternatives from other manufacturers.


Such as...?

Do you honestly believe the cheapest Surface will cost only 300 Dollars? No, it's impossible. 500 Dollars minimum.

Steven Ballner says the price will be between 300 and 800 dollars.

Besides, MS could sell them for 300 dollars even if they were making a loss on the hardware, just to get a nice slice of the tablet market. They have the money
