Microsoft To Launch At Least One Surface All-In-One PC Next Month (zdnet.com)
Microsoft plans to launch at least one Surface all-in-one PC next month, reports ZDNet. The company has been testing 21-inch, 24-inch, and 27-inch models for quite some time, but it is unclear which variant it plans to launch at its event in October. ZDNet reports:I've heard that Surface Cardinal could be positioned as a product that can turn your desk into "a studio." My bet: Cardinal is the rumored Surface All-in-One device running Windows 10, which may come in one, two and/or three different screen sizes (21, 24 or 27), as first reported by Windows Central. This may be the consumer-focused version of Microsoft's Surface Hub, as Windows Central speculated, using the Perceptive Pixel screen technology that's at the core of Surface Hub.
and no one cared
I know, slashdot, M$, BSOD, blah blah blah, but I see them around plenty. I have a Surface 4 and I love it, and even some of the Mac websites were conceding that it's actually a pretty slick machine. And not just targeting you, but it's so weird when Linux and Mac fans both argue that sales figures are probative of quality, considering Mac's pre-2000 history, and Linux's entire history.
No you don't see them. I live in one of the most populated areas in the US and I never see them, ever.
Maybe he just had a peek through the windows. In any case, I'd say it's odd to never/rarely see Surface pros out there. Less common than macbooks, yes, but not exactly hard to find in my experience.
At which point they were called iPads.
EXCEPT during the Super Bowl from two years ago (or was it was last year's?). Towards the end of the game one of the teams was trying to use their Surfaces to disseminate some information on the sideline but they were locking up and not working - in that instance, the guys in the booth repeatedly and correctly referred to them as "Microsoft Surface".
