Called Microsoft Surface, these tablets are not actually manufactured by Microsoft, but the company will be putting its name of the devices. This decision will set up Microsoft as a head-to-head competitor with its own PC maker partners.

OEMs will have cost and feature parity on Windows 8 and Windows RT.”
