But Announcers Are Calling Them iPads

http://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-nfl-surface-ipads-2014-9

quote:

But Microsoft and the league ran into a problem during week one of the season when at least two television announcers mistakenly referred to the tablets as iPads and giving a huge rival unexpected exposure.

The biggest blunder for the league came during the nationally televised Monday Night Football game when ESPN's Trent Dilfer joked about how long it took Cardinals assistant head coach Tom Moore to "learn how to use the iPad to scroll through the pictures."

not even $400 million will make you remember the surface

In His presence the mountains quake and the hills melt away; the earth trembles and its people are destroyed. Who can stand before His fierce anger?
if microsoft had never advertised a surface but instead had manufactured and given away all that have been sold they'd be ahead
