Maybe they did look at the logs and decided that Reader usage was low enough (at Google scale) that they did not care.

I agree that the Surface is not the final realization of the ideal home computing device but it is a decent step towards it. Eventually the device will be a phone with the computing power of a laptop that you can dock and have a full environment ready for you. Clearly we are not there yet but this is a towards that reality.

No but they wish it could run every website on the internet without issue, be a decent word processor when needed, and actually be a true laptop replacement.

I actually thick the Surface Pro, or something like it, will be the future of home computing. It is exactly what everyone with an iPad, including myself, wishes the iPad would actually do. It is a tablet form factor with a the guts of a true computer and support for multiple peripherals. Dock it wherever and have a real computer system or take it on the go like any other tablet.

Thanks for all the info. Oddly enough, I was working out of the Boylston Starbucks all day today and was there when I posted the question. I'll make it a point to get over to Kendall Square.
