The new Microsoft tablet PC called “Surface” has the computer world abuzz. The Surface looks great but how will it compare to the iPad and the host of other Android operated tablet PCs? And how much will it cost?

The Surface for Windows RT is powered by an nVidia chip and the Surface for Windows Pro runs off the Ultrabook-grade Ivy Bridge processors.Â
The most talked about feature, perhaps, of the Surface is the ultra thin integrated multitouch keyboard which also doubles as the screen cover. Apparently it feels great. It certainly looks good.
