Microsoft Doesn’t Cut Prices On Surface Tablets Enough To Make Me Want To Buy
Apparently, Microsoft has cut prices on their Surface tablets. However, they haven’t cut prices enough to interest me as of yet. Mind you, I haven’t looked at how far they’ve cut prices. I just know that I’m still not interested.
How do I know they haven’t cut them far enough to interest me if I haven’t looked? Easy, even without looking I’m pretty sure they are still charging money. Any amount of money is too much for me. The basic fact remains that I don’t want one. They’d have to pay me, and a good amount since I really don’t want one, and I’m sure they’re not doing that yet.
After all, I have a laptop and a smart phone. Most times if I want really portable, I grab my smart phone. If not, I grab my laptop. I just haven’t felt the need for a tablet as of yet. If I do, I’d really lean toward the iPad. It doesn’t have the stench of failure around it.
Isn’t that the problem for Microsoft at this point? If they cut prices because the tablets aren’t selling well enough, doesn’t that just make people worry more that these things are going to fail at some point? Who wants to be wandering around with a failed product? Granted a few HP tablet people wouldn’t mind, but they already have their HP tablets. I’m betting everyone else is probably shying even further away.
Regardless whether I’m right on that or not, I still don’t want a Surface. I don’t want one in a house, I don’t want one with a mouse. They can do what they like with the price, but I’m just not buying.
