And if you are, say, a student looking for new gear next year, do you want to buy a laptop and an iPad or other tablet, or just one Surface for Windows 8 Pro that handles both?

As long as Windows 8 isn't a dud, I think this will be a big player.
You know you might have me there, if they can provide a full OS experience with a decent tablet experience they may just have a winner here... but they'll need to compete on price. It would have to be "well why would I pay $50 more to use a mobile OS (iOS) when I get get Windows 8 for this price?"
