Following much ado regarding Microsoft’s secret Monday afternoon event, the corporation has announced Surface – its first major push into the tablet market. To be released this fall, the 10.6-inch, 1.5-pound Microsoft Surface is not only a product obviously directed toward Apple’s similarly sized iPad, but it will also represent one of the first launches of the upcoming Windows 8 operating system on a mobile device. Microsoft shares traded up slightly more than 1% after hours in response to the announcement.

It doesn't have to. All it needs to do is build market awareness for Windows RT and Windows 8 tablet devices. Actually if they are competitively priced, enterprises and businesses will buy them faster than Microsoft can make them.
