    Why go through all this to get a job at MS when the company has tons of jobs posted that they can’t fill because no one works at this hell hole if they have other options?

    The challenge that was given to them was extremely basic, one of the simplest queries you could write, and it’s so simple that any rank beginner could do it.

    I was not able to come up with a satisfactory explanation as to their performance (don’t want to spoil the ending for anyone). It’s beyond belief.

    Surface is dead.

    Only Surface RT sold bad. Surface Pro was fine!

  6. Mohammed Amine says:

    its great!

  7. GameHEADtime says:

    Yeah but look at the surface 2!

    still overpriced shit. stick to nexus 7

  9. jay43868 says:

    surface kill the samsung

  10. JayJapanB says:

    Now it will have the battery life of FOUR POTATOES!

  11. Steven Martinez says:

    Confusion between RT and Pro / Battery Life / Windows 8. Many people are excited about this device. It’s like everyone came out of their hole and pre-order this thing.

  12. Ali Nadeem says:

    What are you talking about? This is supposed to replace the laptops, so for 1000 dollars for 128GB with SD card support of up to 64 GB, this is a pretty good price.

  13. tbg Giovany says:

    Wait drop the price man

  14. Brian Ladmano says:

    Same price but you can’t use a MacbookAir as a tablet and there’s no touch screen with digitizer pen.

  15. Tom Twohy says:

    Or just buy an MacAir (which is a stout competitor for the laptop mode with no Windows 8) and ditch the “Pad” aspect entirely… which I did, and find it equitable.

    Every first model Surface Pro Demo unit I find in the store (if I find one) is broken already… which I find disturbing.

    This may be due to bad customers that damage it unduly … but still… it looks bad to find so few to even examine. Maybe it’s where I’m living (Silicon Vally Calif)… it’s such a backwater town.

    (Hehe)

    the 2nd gen is about the same as the 1st gen except for better specs and accesories…… why in the world did the 1st gen fail?????

  17. Michael Lewis says:

    Gorgeous hardware and well worth the price, can’t wait to get mine!

  18. Brian Ladmano says:

    Well if you think about it, a base model iPad4 will cost you $500 but since you can’t use it as a laptop, you’ll have to purchase a Core i5 laptop separately for $400 dollars and then you have to carry them both. And I’m not sure if there’s a $400 Core i5 laptop out there with HD display and pressure sensitive digitizer pen.

    I really wish that Microsoft would make an x86 Surface at the RT’s price point — but they obviously can’t do that, because no one would buy Windows RT (as they goddamn well shouldn’t — until that steaming dungpile gets proper desktop functionality, it’s a dead platform as far as I’m concerned). Still, Microsoft would undoubtedly possess the ability to sell an Atom (Bay Trail or Clover Trail)-powered Surface that would be really, really nice.

    You stop responding.

  22. siggibiggy says:

    Hope you stop responding this is getting annoying. fuck off

  23. Daryl Lim says:

    Much better than the 1st Gen mainly because of the battery life but why didnt they made it thinner.. In fact, that was my main reason for not buying the surface pro.. Really love the design and idea though

  24. Efrain Trejo says:

    does the windows surface pro fuctions like a laptop?
    for example i can do anything a laptop does in a windows surface pro (a laptop tha cost as much as a windows surface pro) ?
    I still havent decided if i will buy a laptop or the new windows surface pro

  25. SkwiekieCraft NL says:

  26. Hamza Ali says:
