The Surface RT is simply a very bad product
This man [Microsoft’s PR boss Frank Shaw] has his head so far up his own ass he has absolutely no idea just how terrible the products he is spinning are compared to the competition. And, unlike him, I have no horse in this race. I gave my Surface RT, Windows 8, and Metro a fair chance — several of them, in fact — but the cold and harsh truth is that my cheap-ass, first-generation 8GB Nexus 7 running Android 4.3, bought in June 2012, is infinitely more useful, has far better applications, and has crazy better performance than the Surface RT.
There’s even more there, detailing the horror of RT as well as Windows Phone.
