$3000?!?! You can get the same for about a $1000 less from those doing it for years...
As today Microsoft seems like a new company searching its ways around...

Not the 28" super high-res multi-touch screen, which is what you're really paying for.

Right...it is only 27"...

I'm confused.
Is it a tablet you can't carry around, or a PC you can't upgrade?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Yes.

Hmm ... Perhaps that's the idea.
Stick that under your arm, go for a walk, and tell people it cost $3K - they are going to assume it's the iPhone 8 ...

Unfortunately it looks like what a prototype of the iMac may have looked like 2 years before the iMac release. Just before Steve wandered into the room, looked at the grey box under the screen, and yelled "what the F*** is that thing?".
Love the specs and the fact that it's Microsoft's own, but frankly I would have preferred them to simply make it a nice big touchscreen monitor I can use for my laptop if that meant they could slim it down.
One huge thing I love about my 27" iMac is I can pick it up with one hand and move it around. It's crazy solid. The double folding legs of the Studio don't fill me with confidence. I could be wrong, though.
Oh well - we'll see what Apple has up it's well designed sleeves today.

It seems that this is a progression of the "Surface" table that Microsoft demoed many years ago and is aimed at artists and the like who would work directly on the monitor, rather than have a wacom device or the like.

Yeah - certainly seem that from the video.

After months of not having internet on my home PC I'm finally back online.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.2.2 Beta I told my psychiatrist that I was hearing voices in my head. He said you don't have a psychiatrist!
