Overall I liked the Surface RT except for 2 major issues: App Store only and extremely limited Cisco VPN support. To elaborate, 3rd party VPN support is almost non-existent. The Surface Pro is better for compatibility, but it costs too much for myself to justify buying one.
If Microsoft is going to make a tablet that has productivity they better expand their VPN client capabilities for their ARM based tablet and they better do it fast. Then these things will have more appeal for business sales.
I'd like to call it hashware. And to add to it, if researchers or governments want supercomputer clusters, why not have hashware like bitcoin that pays the public to perform mathematical computations?
