Apparently, Microsoft is not dead. Its Microserfs have been busy on the sidelines while letting Apple dominate the electronics market for more than decade, even way past Steve Jobs' demise.
Now Microsoft, the sleeping giant is in the running again. Microsoft, being the closest giant that can go head-to-head with Apple in terms of computing and electronics have moved into the game by introducing “Surface”, Microsoft’s tablet to compete with iPad. So is it even charming and visually alluring as an iPad? Or just like anything from Microsoft of yore, does it still look a bit evil? Windows and Macintosh OS, iOS and Windows for phones- new mobile rivals to the end. The Microsoft ‘Surface’ Tablet PC is 9.3 millimeter thick, weighs around 1.5 pounds and runs on Windows RT operating system. The debut version is expected on fall 2012 to coincide with the release of Windows 8.
