I have to admit I’m torn on this one. Personally I’m a Mac user who has Android mobile devices (I’ve ‘done’ iPhones and iPads in the past too), so my own house is a Windows-free zone. Microsoft’s foray into the tablet market — the Surface — is interesting in a way that is both good and bad. The inclusion of a ‘proper’ keyboard gives it a unique look that makes it stand out from the sea of tablets now available, but then they would have had to do something like that because the software and user experience alone probably wouldn’t have given them an edge over Apple, Samsung and others.

I can’t even figure out from this video which market they’re aiming at. Is it a tool for business users or a toy for fashionable teenagers?

Watch this and then tell me please!

Well? Any clue?

Whichever tablet you end up buying — even a Surface, I can help you optimise it and get maximum value for your purchase.
