Is Surface Microsoft’s confession that Windows 8 isn’t cut out for tablets?

TLDR: Microsoft bundles a keyboard, that means that windows 8 has inferior touch to the competition.
Never mind that microsoft actually tries to make a tablet that is usable and not just a toy/large phone.
For me personally I'm a bit excited of the x86 version of the tablet, that truly is the first tablet I'd even consider purchasing (probably won't though). But regardless of what you think of the Surface, this article is pure crap.
But if you want your tablet to be just a tablet and to never force you to opt for conventional input devices, the message from Surface is loud and clear: Windows 8 isn't the operating system for you.
Clearly arstechnica isn't for me.
Your argument: This article is crap, all other approaches are toys, don't criticize my favorite unreleased gadget please.
Yeah.
In my eyes windows 8 has potential because it is currently the only OS that can be used both in a tablet and a laptop that isn't dumbed down.
You can criticize it all you want, all in all I barely have any interest in metro for myself, but you better make a better argument than this article or you are just going to make a fool out of yourself.

Betteridge's Law isn't an irrefutable proof that the answer to all yes/no headlines is "no", and merely invoking it without further explanation is lazy.
