Distro Issue 63: Will Microsoft's Surface tablet rise to the occasion?

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/102612announce.jpg As Windows 8 arrives on the tech scene, Microsoft’s retooled operating system carries a truckload of new devices in tow. While the Ultrabooks and All-in-ones are on their way, a lot of attention is being given to the Redmond outfit’s Surface slate. The Windows RT-wielding tablet slides into the spotlight in this week’s issue of our e-magazine and we give it a thorough review to see just how it stacks up against the current contenders. We also spend some quality time with Dell’s XPS 12 Windows 8 convertible and the LG Optimus G handset while the all of the recently announced Apple gadgets occupy Hands-On. Weekly Stat tallies worldwide mobile subscriptions, Visualized steps inside Google’s Douglas County, Georgia data center and Time Machines recalls the origins of digital photography. As always, there’s quite a bit to take in, so consult your usual download sources to take a gander at the goods.
