Microsoft just announced they’re launching their own branded Surface for Windows 8 RT and Surface for Windows 8 Pro tablets. I guess it’s safe to assume that the old Microsoft Surface is dead, since they reused the name and url for the new tablet PC.  It measures 9.3mm, has a 10.6", 16:9 widescreen HD Display, and comes with an integrated Kickstand and a revolutionary, 3mm thin, pressure sensitive cover that doubles as a fully functioning keyboard and trackpad. The Standard Version  has a 1080p resolution, while the Pro Version comes with an amazing 4096p.

I personally still don’t see the point of the netbooks, ultrabooks, or new marketing slang of the day … Is anyone using them? isn’t a Macbook Pro / AIR and an iPad enough?
