Microsoft (MSFT): iPad competitor is coming soon

30. July 2010 by himanshu 8 Comments Share

Microsoft's Apple iPad competitor is "coming soon," with Windows 7 on Intel - Steve Ballmer. Financial analysts' meeting on 29th July, Steve Ballmer made his clear statement yet on the company's vision for tablet computing.

Microsoft has been in the tablet game for many years, but was never able to bring their product into the mainstream. Apple has done it in a matter of months. That is why Ballmer's comments during Microsoft's annual meeting with financial analysts are interesting and kind of fun to read.

The favorite quote from Ballmer:

"We've got everything on our side if we do things really right." - Ballmer

That's a big if, Ballmer. Microsoft got Windows 7 right, though (and it is selling like hotcakes) so I'm not going to count you guys out in the tablet market. But it seems like, by now, Apple will likely have a year's lead in the tablet marketplace.

Should we see a windows 7 tablet along with the windows phone 7 by the end of the year?

Intro* Alright, there are a lot of people in the bathroom and I don't wanna waste these jokes, so I'm gonna hang out for a little bit. Are there speakers in the bathroom? Alright well fuck it, let's do it. I'll just save my more physical stuff for later; this is all audio.

Xylophone is spelled with an X, that's wrong, xylophone's zzzz, X? I don't fuckin' see it. It should be a Z up front, next time you have to spell xylophone, use a Z. When someone says, "Hey that's wrong," say, "No it ain't. If you think that's wrong, you need to get your head Z-rayed." It's like X wasn't given enough to do, so they had to promise it more. Okay, you don't start a lot of words, but we'll give you a co-starring role in tic-tac-toe. And you will be acquainted with hugs and kisses. And you will mark the spot. And you will make writing Christmas easier. And incidentally, you will start xylophone. Are you happy, you fuckin' X?!
