Powerful processor
Decent keyboard
Impressive camera

We're not there yet. Surface is a fantastic promise
And holds fantastic potential. But while potential is worth your attention
It's not worth your paycheck. Surface RT gets so many things right
And pulls so many good things together into one package. B

Abstract: Finding the right business tablet can be a daunting task. Do you want a seven-inch display or a 10-inch? Built-in keyboard? Snap-on keyboard? Which operating system? What apps? How about ruggedness, style, battery life, price? We tested a sampling of five...

Abstract: Microsoft may have turned a few heads with the announcement of the Surface RT tablet, but their initial release was far from the major success the company had hoped it would be. Despite looking very similar, the Surface Windows 8 Pro and Surface RT are...
