Microsoft vs Apple vs Google


Over the next 7 days the 3 giants will declare war on each other and their weapon of choice...a tablet. A have visions of a dark thunder cloud emerging over head and the 3 CEO's standing outside in the rain preparing to do battle like the final fight between Neo and Agent Smith in The Matrix Revolutions.

October 23rd
Apple is rumoured to announce a smaller version of its popular iPad tablet possibly called the "iPad Mini".

October 26th
Microsoft to officially launch Windows 8 and its very first tablet called Surface.

October 29th
Google rumoured to be unveiling a new Nexus tablet.

October 29th
Microsoft to throw a hand grenade into the battle by holding a special event to introduce Windows Phone 8 devices.

So loads to look forward to over the next week and with Microsoft entering the tablet market for the first time in competition with Apple and Google the war really has started but who will be victorious? place your bets now :lol:

When you said "A have visions of a dark thunder cloud emerging over head and the 3 CEO's standing outside in the rain preparing to do battle", the first thing that came into my mind was the battle between Neo and Agent Smith, and woah! you stole my thoughts. Personally, I loved the trilogy.

I have a few day off from school so I'll definitely watch the live videos on TheVerge.

Thanks for the info. Though I already knew about Microsoft and Apple, I didn't knew about Nexus.
