Microsoft reveals slick tablet and waits for Apple to do it better

The humbly named Courier looks to be a cute little toy for the up and coming office mouse. Apparently this is some sort of ‘leaked’ secret tech Microsoft has been developing. Of course tech like this would never be leaked to a mere geek news site, obvious media ploy. Apple probably knew about this long ago and paid heavy to get the information. It wont surprise me if we see another cute little version of this jump out of the black turtle neck soon enough.

Now Apple does have one thing going for them other than an obscene amount of cash flow. Almost everything they make is usually well built and runs great, except that one Apple TV my buddy has that likes to burn hard drives and get so hot you could cook steak on it. Apple products usually looks sleek and amazing, as if suddenly while strutting down the catwalk you might have the urge to write up a deposition. Because you know… you need that second gig as a lawyer to pay for all that stuff.

The tablet looks sweet and promising. It rivals them tricorder things from Star Trek. And who knows, maybe Apple will try to one up Microsoft’s Courier by inventing warp drive. I would like to see the projected price point on that.      The Courier not the warp drive.
