Microsoft Cuts Surface Pro Price By $100 341
SmartAboutThings writes "After discounting the Surface RT tablet worldwide by 30 percent, Microsoft is now cutting the price of its Surface Pro tablet by one hundred dollars. Steve Ballmer himself has recently declared that he was unhappy with the number of tablets Microsoft has managed to sell. The price cut offer is valid between August 4th and August 29th. It might continue or stop, according to the supply. The price cut is applicable to Surface Pro 64 GB & 128 GB models."

Where do you expect this Windows 8 and Surface fiasco will ultimately take Microsoft? What will happen?
Windows 9 will be 'The best Windows ever! Now with NEW mouse and Start Menu support!'

It's a pity that the Surface can't act as a monitor/input device
. . . why can't it . . . albeit, with a hard hack . . . ?
When the price goes down to $99.95, I might buy one as a monitor for my Raspberry Pi.
