The problem is that the RT operating system based Surface doesn't have much more capability than the iPad. It will be easier to store file and to edit them with the built in Microsoft office.

I guess if you are in a corporate group and want a mini, inexpensive laptop for e-mail and full blown Office, plus VPN, then this could work. And the ability to move files on and off the computer is simple (some sort of SD card).

What I described above isn't much more capable than an Andoid tablet. So I think the market for Surface RT should be coporate people like my sister. For me I'll keep my Andoid Tablet for now. When the Surface Pro comes out, I will probably be in line.
