Check Out the First Microsoft Surface Tablet TV Commercial
It's all about the click, don't you know?
Microsoft just treated us to the first Windows 8 TV commercial. Today, despite the fact that the company is keeping tight-lipped on specs and pricing, the company released its first Microsoft Surface advert.
Scheduled to run on TV from tonight onwards, the commercial highlights the Surface's detachable keyboard cover as well as the kickstand on the back of the device. Specifically, Microsoft is focusing on the 'click' you'll hear when snapping the cover on or extending the kickstand. Then there's dancing (because what's a good commercial without dancing?) and an invite to 'Click in at microsoft.com.'

In case you missed it, here's yesterday's ad for Windows 8:

EDIT: I don't have a tablet, just Windows 8. I am not interested in the ARM it is not backward compatible.
And one more thing, you can play fruit ninja with us now. Which is really cool. You'll be just like your friend who have iPhones. Okay, maybe they stopped playing that game 2 years ago, but you can bring it back. It will be retro, and super cool.
Yeah, say the same about almost every other tech TV advert, when was the last time anyone started banging on about hard drive space or if it has USB ports, talking technical in a 30 second ad is proven to switch people off - ads are there to grab your attention then you will look for the specs if interested
infernocy... I bet you don't throw away your socks till the hole in the front is big enough for all 5 toes to push through.. right?
Not that I will be switching to Windows 8 for my desktop. But Windows 7 was just in time when it came out. Not saying XP needs to die (like some over zealous people out there), but I don't think insisting on using XP is something to brag about anymore..
On par to what exactly? Your life breaking out in song?
SIMPLE 'EH?!
NOW PUT THAT IN AN AD INSTEAD OF MAKING ME WATCH HIPSTERS JUMP AROUND LIKE MORONS
Do you know how many cheaper Android tablets out there already can do this? Word document editing is never an issue, and there are plenty of Android devices has USB port and support OTG feature (i.e. read from USB stick). Paying such amount for Surface for such a simple thing is simply a waste of money.
