The piece and ars technica video show both the good and the bad of this new MSFT attempt:<p>Some good ideas, but let&#x27;s be real - ultimately a total niche product at $1500. Compare that the surface pro 3 has been selling about 3-4 million units in the last year ( q3&#x2F;2014 - q2&#x2F;2015 revenue was estimated around $3b, on devices costing about $800 + $130 keyboard), while Apple sells about 20m Mac units in the same timeframe, which is in itself STILL a niche!
