I just can't see myself saying that with a straight face.

I was and indeed still am very proud to be the first kid on my block with one. :)

And I certainly enjoyed having the object of great attention that day, and showing it off to all those interested enough to come by and inquire about it. Revolutionary device. Incredible keyboard cover. A great device for the road, meetings and play; and you can actually do real work on it. A very good portable PC and tablet.

I can't say it with a straight face either... I tend to get a proud smile when I talk about it.

I'm enjoying my in-browser Adobe Flash Player - YouTube video and extended features support in a native player.

The platform (WinRT runtime) will have a targetable user base in the hundreds of millions of users by the end of 2013, and everyone knows native apps blow away html5 apps in the current in-flux state of the standard (to be ratified in 2020?). Yes, I'm an uber geek who gets very excited about technology... especially what I can do with it.

Definitely no straight face here, you are right. I'm beaming.

A Silicon Investor app for the Windows Store... that would be very cool. Someone should do that. Huge audience to bring a bold new take on our beloved boards to.

Incidentally, that video I linked to streams wonderfully to the Surface as well.
