R, using stylus, touch and keyboard. So far only the SP3 comes close it should rock with Windows 10 (the tech preview is pretty good). I would love touchscreen capability on the MacBook line. Microsoft needs to build that superb interoperability and connect ability into their products and highlight that and ongoing compatibility with the Office suite with the extended family like Publisher and Access. And drop the price sell me the SP3, keyboard and docking station for 899 and I will be there. Zte axon 7 cheap Microsoft should bash its competition to a pulp for their disgraceful ads from before. How does it feel when the shoe is on the other foot? Surface Pro 3 has a QHD (2160x1440) display, while the 11inch Macbook Air has a piss quality Non-Retina display of (1366 by 768). The Surface Pro 3 actually weighs lighter than the Air! Surface Pro 3 weighs 1. First off, this article lost all credibility when the writer said "Microsoft is skipping Microsoft 9 and going straight to 10". Do you know WHY Mr. Because in old versions of Microsoft (Windows XP, Windows 98), the version number was Microsoft 9. In terms of the Surface Pro 3, it is NOT a device you want to use 8 hours a day... If you want a laptop and a tablet in one without having to buy a laptop and tablet separately, then get a Surface Pro 3. The ad emphasizes touch as a differentiator, with finger or stylus. The ad fails mentioning USB when the Macbook Air has more, and it fails pointing out the kickstand when the Macbook Air is much more adjustable than in just two set positions.

In pointing out USB and kickstand the ad is dishonest, implying that you cannot do those things with the Macbook Air when in fact the Macbook Air is better in these two regards. It is probably right for a great many people but they will never come to realize it from ads like these. Any time you compare your product with something else there is an implied admission that that something else is both better and more popular — true or not. What I do want to see is an ad showing the Surface in tablet mode with someone laying on a couch. It seems too wide in landscape and too tall in portrait to be practical as a tablet.

I need to be shown that it would work that way. The ad shows two positions. I remember it had one. Hey look, this tilts back further than the Macbook Air will! Oh, just leave them be. Does anyone think that any of their ads will have even the slightest impact on Apple products sales numbers?

Microsoft is completely irrelevant anymore. Let them have their final rants and eccentric irrelevant ads. Apple is not "nicer" than MS. They are just way less stupid.

But the list of legitimate grips against Apple past and present is very very long. Apple is no angel. If you think Microsoft is sinking, I suggest you read some financial websites. They will be at the top in 2 to 3 years with their diverse portfolio.

Meanwhile, one iPhone that flops will sink Apple. However this commercial was really bad, in my opinion.. Everything else about it beats surface...

It would have been a better idea to attack something like iPad, or iPad mini. Otherwise, the commercial was poor. I was wondering why all these comments were so stupidly pro apple... Thanks for clearly un-stupidifying the conversation dude! Your arguments are well laid out, clearly expressed and un-rebuff-able... PC folks are less passionate in their remarks, and I think more logical. Try a Surface Pro 3 before you slam it - you might be surprised if your not a closed minded person.

For someone browsing this article on a surface pro 3(i5 model), I find your arguments pretty irrelevant. The whole point of having a hybrid is to be good at everything, not the best at any one thing. The irony of it all though, is that I compared my SP3 to my buddies macbook, and ironically the only significant difference between the two was the touch screen, and stylus.

Having an extra USB? Are you busy still using USB dongles for everything? I mean good on you if you love Apple products, and you found your cup of joe. I find this entire article to be ridiculous and as a new iPhone owner, I am trying to adapt to a new community as well(imore over windows central).

Maybe because I am new here these types of articles are a bit foreign to me but the overall article just is lame to me. People complained about the surface and the dancing commercial... Which I thought was amazing and a good way to get attention to it. However, these commercials are just the same as the Mac vs Pc ads which I thought were funny. If anything, call MS for copying a similar tactic apple used. But articles like these are exactly why Apple users have the reputation they have simply because it is okay when Apple does it but when someone else does it to apple it is immediately wrong. Attacking Windows 8 I agree with but 10 brings some nice gestures more in line with a touch operating system.

As for the Surface itself, my mother is ditching her laptop and going to a Surface after seeing the adds rather than a Macbook Air. She does need windows for work so that was a big factor to be fair, and I was worried bootcamp or a VM would be too much for her. Who is selling more? MS is pasting Apple in PC sales. Seriously, I never see the other sites post junk like this. Apple was very much little brother targeting MS in those days. In targeting Apple, MS is doing what exactly? So why target someone with such little marketshare?

This ad may make them curious though that MS finds Macs more than worthy to attack. Also, who else would they go after? MS should be more concerned with windows, not hardware.

Well, sorry, but you did a piss poor job at getting your point across then. The first part of your article is just blindly throwing hate toward Microsoft and the PC market against all evidence. You never even mention how Apple has done these things, and to a much more petty degree "hey, everybody, buy a Mac because it can connect easily to this obscure DSLR! Sorry for holding iMore to the same standards as the other sites. You never highlight the light competition.

That would be like Apple highlighting windows phone at one of their events. Instead, educate the ignorant public about windows.

It has the best ecosystem out of there in terms of programs, compatibility, etc. Instead of a stylus, show the guy with an xbox controller playing a game. How about some of that hidden voice recognition? Instead people think of work when you mention windows.

I doubt the average person knows you can use an xbox controller with a PC. My God Rene every ad you try to make it some kind of a personal attack. I thought it was a very light weight ad that did no harm. PS I also think the Surface Pro 3 is a great machine.

Great hardware, well built, strong specs and very portable. The commercial you are referring to was the surface 3 vs iPAD... Take two midol, drink some water, and put down the crack pipe for fuck sake. Did you watch the video, in its entirety?

Then did you read the article, in its entirety? There are four things which MS touts as an advantage, two, of which, are completely errant and misleading.

A) touch screen - Apple reserves for iOS, B) stylus-input capable, which really is the same as touch screen - also available on iOS, though not through Apple, C) kickstand - MBA has hinge for same purpose, and D) USB - MBA has two. Rene is completely justified, albeit a little over-emotional, in his overall thesis. The ad is to show that the Surface Pro 3 takes the place of both iOS and MBA. No, sir, it does not. This ad, specifically, is illustrating how the Surface Pro 3 is better than the MacBook Air. This video, on its own merit, is incorrect and misleadingWrong.

Funny, but the ad Rene spoke of just came on TV as I was reading this. And it made that point very effectively. But for me, I would buy neither the SP3 nor the Mac. Asus T100 for me. It IS the tablet that replaced my laptop.

Great machine and great OS. The SP3 was compared to the iPad with touchscree
