I found a lot to like about Microsoft's new Surface tablet. It's generally a pleasure to use. It has innovative features. And it appears to be well-built. For Microsoft's first effort at designing a mass-market computing device, it's a remarkable achievement, and it rates at or very near the top of the 10-inch tablets that compete with Apple's iPad. It's also a much easier device to understand and use than rival tablets based on Android, and unlike those tablets, it runs Office.
