  Another nail in the coffin for Windows 8 RT and Metro, oh dear!

  I'm amazed they are launching a Surface RT 2. Throwing good money after bad.

  If they merge the app stores so that RT and WP8 are one then they got a small chance of clawing it back.

  I just got my new Surface 2 and the screen on it is a-ma-zing, darling. And the dragon on the start screen as well. It's what Surface RT should have been, IMO.
