*sigh* it's sad that such a fuss was made about this whole "issue", that someone had to do some proper journalism.

Just read through that entire article. Should help extinguish those ignorant flames at my University.
Short story: I use my Surface RT for taking notes as opposed to the popular iPad (and mini) and the eyes of jealousy and hostility begetting regret have turned the rest of the lectur"ees" into Microsoft bashing twits.
My lecturer (read: self-proclaimed Apple fan boy) made so many preconceptions about the RT (including it not running a "real and full" version of Office) that I understand why people naturally choose iPads and iPhones without proper research. Apple have brainwashed everyone into thinking they're expensive hardware is always better and Windows is the cheap alternative.
I'm not saying the iPhone sucks. I use my other half's 4S frequently.
