[LiK]

Fuck I am going to have to buy one. Please don't be a nutty price.

BAWAHAHAHA

 

[twofold]

price is the only way they can fuck this up now

And battery life.

Shame they went with a 16:9 screen, too. 4:3 would be much nicer.

Still, this looks pretty awesome. Kudos to Microsoft.

 

[iNvid02]

pretty incredible

 

[Centurion]

this is totally worth ~$1000 if it has the proper power.

 

[Tobor]

It's a mixed bag. The resolution and ratio are shit. The accessories are kind of cool.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Microsoft Office too? Yep. Now I want one. Where was this tablet when I was in school?!

 

[SteveWinwood]

It's still Microsoft guys. They'll fuck this up somewhere.

 

[Brinbe]

Fuck, that's impressive.

 

[Canuck76]

This is making me rethink the laptop 4 life philosophy i've always had.

Seriously. Might make a pass at this considering price.

 

[Shizzlee]

I kinda want...

 

[itsgreen]

My guesstimate 999 for the Pro, 599 for the RT version...

 

[derFeef]

hnnnggghhh

I fainted.

 

[JLG-]

At first i was like meh just another tablet. But now goddamn, i'm speechless.

The screen definitely looks really clear


im buying this

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

I'm not upgrading to Windows 8 if I can't get that version of a desktop on my PC.

 

[JaggedSac]

Showing off Lightroom running on it. Must have some horsepower in that thing.

 

[D4Danger]

Can Steam work on this baby? if so, and it can run ok, sold.

It's a full version of Windows, so yeah, it can work.

 

[TCRS]

yes, that's the kind of thing I do with my laptop + 22" screen. With Surface I would have everything in one, I could get rid of my touchpad as well! YAAAAYY!!

 

[Fletcher]

Damn. This thing looks very nice, but price is going to be the deal breaker.

 

[Monty Mole]

Windows 8 is starting to make perfect sense now.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

No but guys no apple logo

no buy

wow man, who shit in your cornflakes. no one is really bitching anymore. even though I think this all looks pretty unyieldy

 

[Talon]

And battery life.

Shame they went with a 16:9 screen, too. 4:3 would be much nicer.

Still, this looks pretty awesome. Kudos to Microsoft.

Windows 8 is a horizontal interface.

There's room for both 16:9 and 4:3 tablets.

 

[Zabka]

Windows 8 Pro sounds more like a Macbook Air competitor. Pretty sweet.

 

[JustProgress]

699 US dollars inc.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Sold on everything so far. This is the tablet I've been waiting for!

 

[Mairu]

OMG GUYS THE PEN STICKS TO THE TABLET

In more seriousness, Windows 8 Pro model looks awesome. If priced right (500-600), I am in.

No way it's going to be that cheap ;O

 

[Blackhead]

Microsoft Office too? Yep. Now I want one. Where was this tablet when I was in school?!

.

 

[kehs]

this is totally worth ~$1000 if it has the proper power.

lol, Pro version will be nowhere near $1k.

 

[Kandrick]

Fuck, it looks great.

 

[owlbeak]

Fuck me, an actual type keyboard cover as well!

 

[Randdalf]

This looks really cool. Such a shame I can't stand using Windows 8.

That's basically my feeling. All they need to add is a way to disable Metro. That's it. But they refuse to do this, even though the people who want to do this will probably not get Windows 8 because of Metro.

"What if you prefer tactile keys? We have another product — the Type Cover. I can touch type on this as fast as I can type on any keyboard. Full trackpad with clicking buttons. I'd like to pull all of the family together."

Damn, they're removing any concerns I might have.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Wait, digital ink? Does that mean..

nm...

This was real?

 

[Maiar_m]

was that Lightroom?

 

[Thoraxes]

So it's not just a tablet, but more like a PC-Tablet. I hope this shit catches on.

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

How long will it run? This is my only question right now.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Wow, I'm impressed...wonder how it will sell. Just how much money can MS make...

 

[zethren]

<3 GAF hype

lol

No but seriously, was considering getting an iPad soon. Now I think I want one of these bad boys. Tell us the price!

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

Anyone want an ASUS Transformer Prime? I think I have one for sale.

 

[The Elite]

They thought of everything. I want one. I will have one.

 

[brotkasten]

Wacom or N-trig? That's the other question. My bet is on N-trig.

 

[killer rin]

Amazing, so you can switch it out for a full keyboard

 

[LQX]

All for nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand dollars.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

It's still Microsoft guys. They'll fuck this up somewhere.

Zune > iPod.

Next!

 

[Slayer-33]

$499 and $699! (SPECULATIVE)

 

[Wario64]

hi-res images:

 

[Biggzy]

It must suck to be a Windows OEM right about now.

Just a bit.

 

[RBH]

The shift in the general tone of this thread is pretty amazing to see. :lol


Nice job, Microsoft.

 

[Vic]

ANOTHER COVER? Wow!

 

[MThanded]

what is the goddamn price?

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Think I'm gonna get this, then I'll have an ipad and a hybridddd. All depends on price.
