APPLE STEP ASIDE, MICROSOFT SURFACE BOOK LAPTOP SETS TO RULE

On October 6, 2015, Microsoft made a big  statement with the launch of its first ever laptop, Microsoft Surface Book into the laptop market.  What makes the buzz around this new invention by Microsoft  to be so loud, and yes, it worths the loud buzz, is the fact that Surface Book is not just
another laptop in the market, it's a device that looks every inch a rival to Apple's MacBook Air.

Surface Book has a dynamic fulcrum hinge that let's it open and fold into all kinds of position, and also allows the keyboard-bearing base to be removed completely, turning the Surface Book into a standalone tablet.
