I remember their developer evangelists were running around showing off some $3000 Samsung tablet PC prior to the Surface and Surface Pro being released.

People think the Surface is expensive because they compare it to the iPad or Nexus 7/10 product lines, but it seems like Windows RT is closer to a port of Windows 8 to ARM than anything else, which makes it seem odd that you'd think to run Windows Rt on a $200 tablet.



The surface is using the same CPU as the 199$ nexus 7 (tegra 3) so the internals are more or less the same.


I think (s)he was talking about what used to be called "Surface", which is now called "PixelSense".
