Kwiveki ephelileyo iwebhusayithi yaseSweden yapapasha loo nto umphandle ingaya emarikeni ngexabiso ngaphezulu kwe-1.000 yeedola (kwaye ingaphantsi kwe-2.000 yeedola) eyabangela isiphithiphithi kumajelo akhethekileyo, kuba uMicrosoft wayebhengeze ukuba, ngaphezu kwakho konke, Umphezulu uya kuba nexabiso elikhuphisanayo. Kungekudala emva kwale webhusayithi inye yapapasha ukuba inani liphendule uqikelelo lwakho kwaye hayi kwinkampani yangaphakathi evuzayo; nangona kunjalo, amahemuhemu malunga nexabiso lemveliso akayeki ukuvela.
NgoJuni ophelileyo, iMicrosoft ibhengeze ukuphehlelelwa kweenguqulelo ezimbini ezahlukeneyo eziza kuba yithebhulethi yayo: Kumphezulu we-RT y Surface Pro. Eyokuqala iya kuba neprosesa ARM kwaye iya kuza ukugubungela imisebenzi yeetafile ezinokusetyenziswa, ngelixa eyesibini iya kuba neprosesa Intel kwaye iya kuqhelaniswa ngakumbi ukuba isebenze njenge-ultrabook. Zombini ziya kubaleka 8 Windows Kwaye nangona, ngokutsho kwenkampani, baya kukhutshwa ngamaxabiso akhuphisanayo, sisazi kancinci ngayo.
Nangona kunjalo, ulwazi olubeke ixabiso le-Surface phakathi i-$ 1.000 kunye ne-2.000 yeedola ayibonakali ihla; ngokuchaseneyo, ngoku enye idatha iqala ukujikeleza ngakumbi iyahambelana. UErick Franklin kwiwebhusayithi yeCNET Ucinga ukuba i-32GB Surface RT iya kuthengisa nge-$ 530 kunye ne-64GB nge-$ 630; Ngelixa inguqulo yePro iya kuxabisa i-850 yeedola kwi-64GB kunye ne-950 yeedola kwi-128GB.
Sekunjalo yonke into uqikelelo side sifumane amanani asemthethweni kuMicrosoft. Into esiyaziyo ngokuqinisekileyo kukuba inkampani sele ihambisa iitshiphusi ukuze iqalise ukuveliswa kwesixhobo esiza kuthengiswa ukuphela kuka-Okthobha. Enyanisweni, utyikityo ukuqesha iinjineli kwizikhundla zabo ukugqiba ukucacisa imveliso, ngokunikezelwa kwemisebenzi kwiwebhusayithi yabo. Ke ngoko bafuna ukomeleza ngakumbi iqela lomsebenzi esele linamandla elinikezelwe kwiSurface.
UMicrosoft uthetha kwiphepha lakhe elithi "imijikelo yokuphuhlisa imveliso ngokukhawuleza”. Le njongo inokutyhila izinto ezimbini, eyokuqala yokuba ngokusebenza ngemijikelo, banokuthi bahlengahlengise isicwangciso sabo ngakumbi kwindlela yokuqhuba. iapile, abavelisa imveliso ngonyaka, kunaleyo yezinye iinkampani ezifana Samsung esebenza ngendlela ethe saa kwaye ebhetyebhetye. Ukongeza, ukuba iyaziqhelanisa nale mijikelezo yophuhliso, yinto ekufuneka ibonakaliswe kwixabiso, ngokwenyani. ilahliwe inani le-1.000 yeedola, kwaye siyaqonda ukuba iya kuba yimali ehambelanayo naleyo yabakhuphisana ngqo.
