Since the iPad launched in 2010 started the Tablet PC has been dominated by Apple. To June 2012, iPad ushered in a strong first challenge: Microsoft released a self-developed Windows Tablet Surface RT. A time “iPad killer” argument heard, and even a small portion of Apple iPad users have begun to worry about them: iPad really too Windows PC than you?

ratio better than too, Microsoft and Apple two companies or is a fan of both sides have their own rhetoric, but if we’re looking for an objective starting point, it depends on the sales of the product. Wei Feng network July 19 news, Microsoft today announced that the company’s quarterly earnings report, which has a number associated with the Surface RT is: As the “inventory adjustment” causes a loss of $ 900 million.

Microsoft does not publish Surface RT in the previous quarter, the exact volume, but the “loss of 900 million” and “inventory adjustment” two words have told us everything. A few days ago, Microsoft Surface RT just the price will be lowered by a $ 499 starting price dropped to $ 349 (China area is reduced to 2,488 yuan from the 3688), I do not know whether such an adjustment to future Surface RT has been improvement in sales?
