    Goodie for you. I wish I lived in your world. Some of us live in the real world which is a dynamic and fast moving place where not everything is under your control. My overall point is, the surface is really good for some use cases. It's only fair to acknowledge this if you're going to call it useless.

    There is one indisputable point in which Surface is awesome and iPad and android competitors cannot match. If you are going to a conference or a business meeting and you need to do some last-minute edits on your presentation, you can do this on the surface and you cannot on the iPad. The surface has USB support and it has a native version of PowerPoint that is much more compatible with the desktop version.

    I have found that both the iPad and Mac versions of PowerPoint are mostly compatible with files made on the desktop windows, but sometimes breaks things like fonts, photo layouts, or transitions. If you're in a pinch and try to make a change on the iPad, then you need to upload it to "the cloud" or email it to yourself, then try to download it on either the presentation computer or on someone else's computer so it can transferred to USB. It's times like this when I wish I had a surface.

    well, jokes on you because apple tv is already a great success, and the new model extends what is being currently done. I'm interested to see the new "app centric" approach and the app store. tbh not that interested in the games myself. sometimes i like renting movies from itunes.

    no matter what, the apple tv will be successful for its streaming tv. gaming and iot hub are just added benefits. both will have time to grow and be supported.

    in the keynote they were pushing the appletv remote as a wii-like "wand". it even comes with a wrist strap so you don't break your tv. it showed one of the steelseries xbox style controllers as the canonical controller. too bad it won't come with one in the box.

    Newton and Pippin were both literally 20 years ago. It's like saying that the Xbox One sucks because of MS Bob. Similarly, the "jailbreak over the internet" OS was 6 revisions ago.
