"We said, why not do something with this surface? We made it a full multitouch keyboard." Whoa, people are hooting.

Day fucking 1 man.
 
I must admit that this looks really nice. Good job MS.

I'm a Apple whore, but I like the idea of a tablet and full PC converging. They did it properly finally.
 
Honestly, the x86 tablet is gonna need reskinned apps... Lightroom for example, is gonna be unusable with that UI unless you plug a mouse there.
 
if this gives me a really nice workflow between a tablet and desktop with Windows 8 where I can use Photoshop on the tablet, draw stuff, and then move those hi-res files back to computer to animate... I'm selling my iMac when this comes out possibly.
 
This sounds like exactly what I wanted from a tablet, and have been waiting for before jumping in. A true physical keyboard, true USB support, true Windows OS... yes please.

I purchased a Zune and have always been happy with it, I don't see any reason why I won't be there day one for one of these.
 
You know, I was using my gf's iPad the other day and she has a magnetic cover for it. I laid it out and joking acted like the cover was a keyboard. Fuckin' yes, I should be an idea guy at MS.
