Quelltext der Seite Microsoft Surface Pro

The <code>Microsoft Surface Pro</code> is a x86 tablet. Optionally are a cover with keyboard and a digitizer/stylus. The good thing about the surface is that is as handy and mobile as a tablet but has the performance (cpu, ram, ssd) and software of a x86 notebook. And you get FullHD display resolution on 27 cm.

== operating systems ==
The cpu is amd64 and the UEFI is also 64 bit. This way only amd64 based software seems to boot.
