Is this the Surface laptop?

There's a picture of a laptop on the new Microsoft Edge introduction page that shows a nice looking laptop that's wedge shaped exactly how I would imagine a Surface laptop to look.

I've never seen this laptop anywhere, with a big black trackpad and that wedge shape on the edges... this has to be a Surface laptop, right? :love:

My money is on it being a generic laptop graphic. I honestly, can't expect a Surface laptop considering there's a market full of them.

The screen looks like the screen of Surface.

The keys on the keyboard also look like type cover keys. This may be a real device in the future.

Given the good brand name of Surface, I think there is potential for a Surface laptop, with a 14"-15" screen. It is kind of the Microsoft equivalent of MacBook Pro (but I would expect it is much lighter than MBP).

I really hope the Surface line can be extended to larger screen size. If the Surface products continue to be successful, I think Microsoft does not need to put so much money on promoting new Surface devices.

Well, the screen looks like literally any other recent laptop too.

I honesty wouldn't expect a Surface laptop because then it isn't a Surface.

Going to stick with it being some 3D mockup by the art dept.

I know it's a render. So is every single marketing image of a product you see, even the ones that look like photographs. That doesn't in any way prove it isn't a Surface laptop, just that the picture is a render like all marketing images are.

What's more likely; that the guy who designed the web page pulled an image of a laptop that was ready, which is the normal way, or that he decided - for no obvious reason - to spend hours crafting from scratch a mockup of a non-existing laptop as a minor picture for the web page? It's also possible that it's an internal render of a past Microsoft laptop that never came to be.
