With a launch site that looks like it was put together in a weekend by a 7th grader: http://www.microsoft.com/surface/

I'm being honest here; simplicity is one thing, but this isn't exactly competing.


I'm not sure I follow your argument that they can't compete in the hardware/software market based on the design of their webpage. Scroll down the About page [1] and I don't see much that's different from the iPad page [2].
