Are you seriously still calling out a computing device for not being repairable in 2018? That's the norm now, and has been since Apple decided everything should be surface mounted a few years back. It's just a necessary evil if you want a light, portable computer.

After all the horror stories I'd never consider buying a Surface, even when it was something I initially was greedily eyeing due to the good specs. Although the price was never attractive.
I couldn't care less about Apple's products, and I laugh at anyone who considers them an industry standard setter.

If it were this price a couple years ago, I'd have bought it when I bought my last laptop. Meanwhile, I have plenty of tablets, old large phones and whatnot. Perhaps I'll watch the used market as these price drops help bottom out the older units too.

It has always been the high price that has led to the Surface sub par sells and lets not even mention their despicable app store

Ah makes sense, you invested a lot of money in to them so you must now have to defend them with everything you got. Also no im comparing it to other portable devices aka tablets which the majority of consumers view these as. Again back to my original comment, its good to see they finally have a product that people will buy so that they might finally own some of the market and it doesn't end up like every device they have ever released other than the xbox. But im pretty sure its destined to fail anyway because of the App store being rubbish and people buying t Their windows phone also owned 1% of the market, so yea that did well as well lol. Oh but that's apples to oranges right. Lets see, Windows phone, Zune, Microsoft band, and now the Harman Kardon Invoke yup they all were profitable too so they must have been successful, ill go to the store and buy one, oh wait.... (btw I did own multiple windows phones and I also own the Invoke) so although I know you tried to take my OP as a bash it wasn't, and you spun it in to some ridiculous point youre trying to make about being profitable which no one asked
