re: Will touch drive Microsoft surface sales
Call me a Luddite, but if the Surface had a keyboard, I?d definitely prefer it over touch or speech.

I think I'm a bit like that... I like the keyboard, though digital or physical probably wouldn't matter too much on a surface that size. A combination of keyboard and touch might be the best way to get more people to start using it.

But is Linux suitable?  quikboy | 01/08/08
Those features have nothing to do with the OS, and they were NOT invented  DonnieBoy | 01/09/08
Why the focus on the OS?  tikigawd | 01/09/08
The Linux Foundation will NOT get into hardware. It will be a manufacturer  DonnieBoy | 01/10/08
