Should I Buy A Microsoft Surface RT?

In October of 2012, Microsoft did a huge favor to the American people. You see, everyone was busy and was were forced to watch all be political TV ads as they barraged their living room, but Microsoft had a new advertisement because they were marketing their new tablet computer. It was a positive message, and much needed within the debris of political rhetoric and the approving of all those messages. Their new product is called; The Microsoft Surface RT. I think I want one, and let me tell you why I am going to make this purchase.
First of all, the iPad is nice, it's a cool technology, and it has lots of apps available, and is easy to surf the Internet for news and other things. Further, you can read PDF files, and I like this because I run a think tank and I can take my research papers with me to Starbucks to sit and read, or on the road without taking my laptop. I also do a lot of traveling, so it's nice to have a small tablet, and I have my laptop back up still at home, not risking it flying around the country or to another country.
Still, I think the Microsoft Surface RT is a much better technology because you can use a full version of Microsoft Word which is very important to me as an online writer, and because I do business consulting. It's also wonderful to make plans and projects which I will inevitably have to have on Microsoft Word anyway. I can't do that with the iPad, and even the apps for word processing are simply not viable for what I need. The Surface RT however is a laptop and a tablet computer all-in-one.
Some of its early critics are obviously diehard Apple fans, or very much like the idea of the android technology and all the tablets that work on that operating system. Nevertheless I think for the small business person this is the perfect technology. So it's bound to be a winner with that crowd as well. Since 10% of our population is self-employed, that means just in the United States alone their market is 30 million. And that's without getting into all the other folks that have always used a Microsoft operating system and Microsoft word for their word processing program for decades now.
On October 22, 2012 the Wall Street Journal published an article titled; "Microsoft Dives Into the Retail Scene - Firm Takes Unprecedented Role in Dictating How Big-Box Stores Should Display Computers and Pitch Them to Shoppers," by Shira Ovide and Ann Zimmerman.
This tells me that if this Surface RT is marketed correctly to college students, small business people, professionals, and others that it will be a hot item, and has a much larger market potential than the iPad. Not to mention it's quite a bit cheaper as well. In any case I'm buying one, and those that are naysayers, or think this technology is inferior, are completely missing the point. Not only is it not inferior, it does everything I need it to do. So don't tell me it's not good enough. I'm buying one, and you should too. Please consider all this and think on it.
