Honestly, I think Surface is already a success. I've seen and heard dozens of people talking about their experience with it, that they are getting it, etc.. I guess a lot of people were holding out for more PC like tablets with USB ports and Office to make the switch and MS did a good job marketing. Just because something is a success, though, doesn't mean it is better than Apple or Android for everyone or that it will take over the market. It just means it is profitable and has a spot in the marketplace where it can be improved multiple revisions. It took Xbox a couple revisions before it was really a major player, which happened mostly due to Xbox Live providing the modern internet gaming experience everyone else had to copy. You don't have to blow everyone out of the water to have a successful product or company, and in MS's case, they just have countless companies they run their business on their software who will be their best clients. If if MS was a failure with consumers and they only sold to businesses already in their thrall, that's still a good business with room for products.
