That didn’t take long. HP intros another tablet PC, which is now called a slate. From Fake Steve on Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer’s keynote commercial and the HP tablet-cum-slate:
Anyway, what he’s showing is only a prototype, ie a lame attempt to copy what we’re doing and steal some thunder from our announcement later this month (right, as if). There’s no official ship date, but trust me, before it’s even left the building this thing is toast. It’s dead. For one thing, look at it. If they give it a name, I’d suggest something like: Meh.
Fake Steve says it’s doomed. Why?
It runs software from Microsoft.
