We have already posted about the
launch of the Surface Tablet from Microsoft, seen its images, and the basic
specifications of each of the variants. Now we will see some more amazing things about the Surface Tablet ! These have been gathered from the
Surface Launch session presented by Steve Ballmer, Steven Sinofsky, Michael Angiulo and Panos Panay !
Just as Microsoft reimagined Windows with
Windows 8, they have reimagined the tablet with the Surface! Microsoft has invested significantly in terms of talent, time and capital to bring out Surface. It is very different and a very special device achieving perfection in every single sub component of the product to its minutest details. A team full of designers, engineers, H/W testers etc and all working on the product took months & months of prototyping to achieve this.
Surface RT is
super thin at 9.3mm - just enough to accommodate full-sized USB port. Surface RT on ARM has USB2.0, while the Surface with Intel running Windows 8 Pro has USB3.0.
