Microsoft’s Surface Is Feature Rich, But Still A Mystery

Posted on by

Microsoft took center stage last week in Los Angeles, giving onlookers and web-viewers a glimpse of their new tablet.

Surface showcased features that many believe the developers at Apple have long overlooked. A built in kick stand, an integrated keyboard, flash card slots, and USB ports are just a few. Microsoft presented plans for two versions of the new tablet, but both will boast HD screens, lightweight portability, and a new magnesium alloy body developed by the software magnate. While many details about the upcoming release were left to the spectators imagination, all in attendance were left asking the same question: when will it be released?
For now, that question has yet to be answered.

For all the available details about Surface, watch this week’s Sweet Tip video. If you have any questions about the new tablet, send us an email at sweettips@compren.com. Make sure you ask about our weekly specials and the computer repair services available in your area.
