It certainly doesn&#x27;t impact the reasons I use a Surface. The Surface Pro is a direct laptop replacement for me and runs any Windows application I throw at it, including that I do development on it from time to time in Visual Studio.<p>Dell just announced a partnership with Microsoft to sell and support the Surface to enterprises, and that&#x27;s probably going to be a big and growing market for the Surface. Again, largely because even the 3 Non-Pro now is a full Windows laptop replacement of a sort that can run an enterprise&#x27;s full suite of Windows applications.<p>I don&#x27;t think it has a chance to &quot;wipe out&quot; the Surface, but I also don&#x27;t see it as a direct competitor to the Surface. Particularly because of how different iOS and Windows are, it seems like comparing apples to oranges and last I checked apples have still yet to wipe out oranges and we&#x27;re all a little better off for having a choice in our fruits.
