Apple thought about making Microsoft’s Surface Studio years ago

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/9522c6ddc62795fb2cd5aae6289bc08b.jpgMicrosoft's new Surface Studio is an intriguing, albeit incredibly expensive, new PC geared for creative professionals. Boasting an impressive 28-inch display, the Surface Studio's underlying appeal is a specialized hinge design that allows users to collapse the display to a 20-degree angle. In turn, users can more readily use the generously sized display for artistic endeavors like drawing or even seemingly mundane tasks like marking up documents. Given the Surface Studio's expensive price tag -- the entry level model starts at $2999 -- and the fact that quantities will be limited at launch, …

Without question, the most intriguing aspect of Apple's new top of the line notebook is an OLED touch display that Apple is calling the Touch Bar. As previously rumored, the Touch Bar will dynamically display different control options depending on whatever app happens to be up and running. Even better, the Touch Bar can be customized to more efficiently fit into a user's specific work…
