Zax, I don't know -

"Hey babe wanna come over to my place and see my surface?" sounds like it'll get a lot of slapped faces, while

"Hey babe wanna come over to see my iPad?" sounds like it'll get fewer slapped faces.

It took me about 2 seconds to pin SI to Start Menu. Now, I have my own SI App.

I gotta say that Windows 8 is awesome!!

The only thing that Windows 8 is missing so far is a way to transfer all Facebook contacts to Skype. Maybe there is a way to do it, just haven't seen it yet.

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

... Hang on and you'll probably be proud to be the only and last kid on the block to have one.

Zax,

I live and work (just retired yesterday) in the DC area and I don't know of one individual talking about the Surface, buying one, or bragging about owning one.

One man's observation. I will still go into DC 2-3 days a week and I will let you know if my observation changes.

Kurt

I'm just poking fun at the name, "Surface" zax. I understand what you are going through. A proud owner on the cutting edge of Microsoft technology.

Be careful with that surface board, zax. It might not live up to your expectations in the ocean of real life. I know you're walking the nose right now, but I'll be surprised if it carries you to the pipe, let alone through it. (surf board talk from an Arkie? Ha!)
