The fate of our Surface RT

[Silent Fox]

With the upcoming W10, windows RT is slipping away to the land of forgotten...What do you guys see happening with the rest of your Surface RT's life??


i love my old Surface and have found it much more useful for me than an Ipad, and much closer to a real computer than the Ipad was...

I keep using it for surfing the internet and watching YouTube.
I have a surface 2

It'll just be the same as it is now.

Well, upgrades with some of 10's features are guaranteed, so there's that.

I'm pretty sure they will let the winRT tap into the win 10 store. It'd be a total bad idea for them not to tap into you folks for app purchases!

Mine will soldier on - I hope we get touch office and some of the cool stuff from Windows 10 and if there are more apps developed we reap the benefits!

It will keep working as it is.
It's when you can't get apps for it any more that it dies off (see Windows Phone 7.8).

A good option could be the Linx 10 tablet. Seems to get good reviews, is a similar size to the Surface RT, comes with a keyboard cover.
Full Windows too so will get the full Win 10 upgrade

I'm assuming MS will deal with the Surface and the Surface 2 in the same way, in which case we already have multiple threads on this topic:

For that reason I'll close this now, but PM me if you feel there will be differences between what MS provides for the Surface and Surface 2 and want to discuss that specifically.
