cardboard box

An amazing device that can easily be made into a variety of things.

Quote from Calvin and Hobbes:

Calvin: "Hey, Hobbes, wanna go time traveling with me? See, I built this time machine." (shows Hobbes a right-side-up cardboard box)

Hobbes: "This looks a lot like your transmogrifier."

Calvin: "To the inattentive layman, yes, but with the transmogrifier, you crawl under the box, whereas in the time machine, you climb in on TOP."

Hobbes: "Ah."

Microsoft Surface

Quite possibly the coolest thing Microsoft has created since the Xbox 360 in 2005. It is a tablet with an interface like its sister product Windows 8. The coolest feature is the ability to attach a soft keyboard that doubles as a cover, dubbed Touch Cover, while putting the tablet up on a built-in stand. So it's almost a touchscreen laptop.

Microsoft Surface proves that Microsoft can be a little like Apple, sometimes.

Windows 8

A computer operating system by Microsoft to be released in October 2012. Its layout is similar to that of Windows Phone 7 for the reason that Windows 8 is expected to be used mostly on touch screens and tablets. And even if you don't have either of those, Windows 8 has a desktop mode which looks exactly like that of Windows 7 except there's no Start Button, much to the dismay of Windows fanatics. Windows 8 will be released alongside Windows Phone 8 and Microsoft Surface tablets.

Windows 8 is actually pretty awesome.
