Mobile & Apps: "Microsoft is showing confidence in its Surface RT Windows 8 tablet push by making plans to ship 3-5 million units by this fall. That is a big number, but not huge enough as Apple's iPad is shipping three times that amount."
Microsoft is laying off more employees, a new round after they cut thousands last year. It seems like many big tech companies are doing the same.

Amidst the AI frenzy of 2023, major players like Google, Microsoft, and Meta are in the spotlight, launching their own generative AI systems.
I don't think they can but I REALLY wish someone would. I cannot stand Apple.
Microsoft could sell more devices, but would it make more money? More than likely, not.
Nope if Apple bring out mini iPad it's price will be lower than the cheapest surface tablet. Apples iPad will not be beaten by the surface. Not in the short term not in the long term.
I really do want to buy a Surface. It's biggest selling point is the awesome keyboard.
Unfortunately that's $600 right there. People are going to jump for a "cool" iPad at that point. Microsoft needs to sell at production costs and make it back in the Win 8 app store.
