If Microsoft’s recent Surface announcement made you think about a funky LED table, that’s because it wasn’t long ago
that a joint effort with Samsung bore that moniker instead. While Redmond appropriated the name for its new tablet, the two companies are still selling the original device — now the Samsung SUR40 with Microsoft PixelSense — as a business collaboration tool. Though there’s no mention of price on Samsung’s site, the last time we checked, the 1920 x 1080 gorilla glass device was running a mere $ 8,400. For that sum, it might be useful for deep pocketed institutions — so hopefully early adopters hoping to earn some hipster cred didn’t end up with buyer’s remorse.
