I spot a Microsoft Surface in the wild!

Omaha and I went out for lunch today, and while we were getting our bagels I noticed that the man sitting at the table next to ours had a weird looking tablet, but it was the chicklet keyboard that gave it away. "Look," I told Omaha, "A Microsoft Surface in the wild."

The guy overheard me and snorted. "Yeah. Kinda weird, huh?"

"How good is it?"

He shrugged. "It's not great. But I need it for Excel."

And that encapsulates much of Microsoft's marketing since Windows 3.1.
