Dick Brass is doing a little bit (okay, a lot) of historical rewriting here.

MS did have a tablet PC. It sucked. Royally. There was no compelling market for it. There were no apps specifically for it. Imagine 2000-year era technology in tablet format. No one could figure out what to do with it - including Dick Brass.

No one brings the rhetoric like an executive scorned.
