The 9 worst Microsoft products ever
By Microsoft Subnet on Thu, 12/06/07 - 11:54pm.Yesterday, we named the eight Microsoft products that landed on MaximumPC's all-time greatest hits list. Today, we have the nine products whose main claim to fame will be the number of "worst" lists they make.
No. 9: The Microsoft Surface PC
Ok we admit the thing is fun. And we are going out on a limb because the Surface PC won't ship until next spring. But with an anticipated price tag of $5,000 - $10,000, we doubt that people will be camping out at the mall to buy one. Microsoft vaguely says that in three or four years, the price will be low enough for the average consumer. But, will the average consumer want one in the average living room? In the meantime, if you haven't seen this spoof of the Surface PC in a while, hit the play button and enjoy.
