    <p>An I've never listened to this before and Brad sounds just like a spreadsheet come to life. "Interpolation"! As a sysadmin for analytics, I love it!</p><p><br></p><p>To be fair, quarterly results are all about the figures. But Brad sounds like Moneyball and Paul like Sports center.</p>

    <p>Originally when Microsoft launched the Surface line it was a new category. The belief at the time was that other manufacturers would develop similar products like Surface.</p><p>But I don’t see many of those, if any. Maybe the Surface doesn’t fit, I mean as a tablet it is not as good as a dedicated tablet like the iPad, and as a laptop it isn’t optimal either (as Mary Jo would say it is not “lappable”).</p>
