Use surface for all the sensors that are in windows?
I'm sure most Microsoft employees don't even use IE
are you trying to tell me a new product that isn't even released yet doesn't quite work great?
"epic fail" christ i hate this term
I hate these tablets because they have no functionality what so ever compared to your laptop, or desktop, and they're just a fad. Maybe in the future they'll be pretty sweet, and they already have SOME interesting features, but for what you pay, fuck that. And that screen.. A good 50% of the surface is letterboxed judging from that video, not even being used or utilized

Do yourself a favor and stop getting your opinions from the internet.
Oh god they had backup tablets back there just in case something fucked up. That's embarassing

[QUOTE=Kegan;36420399]Oh god they had backup tablets back there just in case something fucked up. That's embarassing[/QUOTE] it'd be more embarrassing if it just broke and then they went "well that's it folks gotta end it early"

You can fork over the $200 if you want but why waste the money. Good luck with your hopes and dreams [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Flaming" - Autumn))[/highlight]

I don't care if you think every other version sucks, that's fine, I just find it weird that you would use that to say that the next version automatically sucks without even using it. Windows 8 is pretty good actually. Give the Release Preview a try, it's much faster than 7 and they made a lot of great improvements to thing like the task manager and reset and refresh. Vista was pretty great too, yeah it was horrible at launch because of driver issues but by the time SP1 was out it was a huge improvement over XP. I don't need luck for my hopes and dreams, I have a beard.

I agree with the beard guy ^^^^. I had a beard once. Probably sticking with Windows 7. We went through how many versions of this product, and now that we've settled in, they want to try to be like apple in some mid-life crisis.

These things are cool. I would get one if I had money to spend like that. I know now they're only just getting the grip of things I just hope in the future when Microsoft show something, they show it being stable and easy to use.
Epic is the only word that makes me fucking rage when it isn't used correctly Besides he handled it well, they had back up tablets at his disposal incase anything went wrong and he quickly went on with the show.
Not wanting to start some hate shitstorm or anything. But I find the illuminated logo on the audiences' macbooks somewhat funny.
He should have grabbed the backup device sooner instead of making it completely obviously that the one in his hand became totally unresponsive.
LOL EPIC FAIL!!!11 xD
Just gonna leave this here. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsKKQNZG3rE[/media]

What a poor guy.
I'd be shitting myself having to do a presentation in front of anyone. He handled it really well.
