Microsoft Surface: Something Hilarious Out Of SarcasticGamer.com

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with RealSatisfied

A few weeks ago, I wrote Microsoft Surface - Something Truly Amazing Out Of Redmond.

Microsoft Surface LogoOn Monday, SarcasticGamer.com put out a "twisted take on one of Microstoft's latest and greatest announcements." Boy, do I love a good parody.

Excerpt:

"Instead of using one of today's more popular compact devices to get directions to where you're going, why not use a device the size of a small car to do the same job?"

Steve Zehngut sent this to me and I laughed my butt off at the ending. I won't spoil it for you. But if you know how much I like Apple, you'll know why I laughed so hard.

Woo Hoo, I want a big a-- table computer; then I can have the bulging disc in my neck get even worse from sitting and looking down all the time and all that pain for only $10,000.  Cool.

I'm guessing this is just the first of many Surface parodies coming out this summer. iPhone should be available one week from today. Anybody getting one?

Oh boy, this is hilarious Jeff!  The thing I fear of parody though is oft-time its eventual reality...

I will certainly do that - I'll have TLW give me your hug so I don't have to hug myself!  ; )

Ines... the last thing we need is a photo of you trying to hug yourself floating around the Internet. :)

Thanks Jeff,

I'm a die-hard Apple fan so it really brought a huge smile to my face. For years MS has been trying to play catch up to Apple's innovations but they never quite get it right do they.

Thank you again for giving me something to laugh about after a week of non-stop crying.

Way too funny. I had a chance to try out the Surface and to be honest I was a little disappointed. Maybe I had my expectations set too high! By the way: I included an easter egg in my post that linked over to this post. ;-)

OK Jeff

I guess I'm a real Rainer now.  I too have watched this three times, but silly as it seems I can't wait thill our PC's have this touch screen technology.  I absolutely love it.  And I guess I'm weird but I want a "big ass table."  LOL  :)

Roberta... I totally dig the touch screen thing. It's one of the cool features of the iPhone that I'm looking forward to testing.

Keep us poor people informed so we can at least live vicariously. :)
