Microsoft Surface Release Date Confirmed

Posted by samzenpus on from the coming-to-a-store-near-you dept.

twoheadedboy writes "Microsoft is going to release its Surface tablet on the same day Windows 8 goes on general availability, Oct. 26. The news was disclosed in a filing made with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which also revealed that the company expects launch and the accompanying marketing to harm its profits. We'll soon find out whether Microsoft has what it takes to take on the seemingly indomitable iPad."

    The guys on Slashdot say they're not gay - even though they are effeminate, histrionic, dandy, mincing, androgynous, gynomastic, vain, sissy, dainty, and fussy manchild weenies.
