Microsoft on nyt joutunut mediankin silmissä naurunalaiseksi ja paljastunut pelkäksi valehtelijaksi. Vain kolme päivää ennen tulosjulkaisua yhtiö tiedotti mm. näin:
"We've been seeing great success with pricing and cover promotions over the past several months on Surface RT in the U.S. and other markets. People who buy Surface love Surface, and we're excited about all those additional people out sharing their excitement for Surface with other people."
Mutta kolme päivää myöhemmin 18.7.2013 se joutui ilmoittamaan analyytikoille että Surfacesta kirjattiin noin 900 miljoonan dollarin tappiot koska tuote ei käy kaupaksi VAIKKA sen hinta oli jo aikaa sitten alennettu roimasti.

"Really? Great success? Excitement?
Somehow, all that "great success" on July 15 turned into a complete train wreck by July 18, when Microsoft took a $900 million charge for unsold Surface tablets. During an earnings call with The Wall Street Journal, CFO Amy Hood said, "I want to be clear: We know we have to do better, particularly on mobile devices."

Kyllähän jo nimi "Surface" kertoo ettei tuosta ole kuin pintaliitoon.
