Microsoft CEO Ballmer shows Surface Tablet PC

Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's CEO, said in an interview in Monday with Le Parisien of France that the initial sales performance for the Surface tablet was "moderate" due to limited sales channels (Ballmer).

"We have a modest beginning, because surface is only available on our website and a handful of US retail outlets," Ballmer said today. ”

Microsoft announced the launch of the Surface tablet on its Windows 8 operating system last month, with the aim of hitting back at Apple and Google in the explosive-growth computing market. The tablet, which is based on windows, comes with a suite of office software and a keyboard shield. Microsoft says surface is an ideal combination of PCs and tablets, convenient for both work and entertainment.

Ballmer previously said 4 million users were upgraded to Windows 8 in the first three days after the Windows 8 listing.

Asked what he thought of Barack Obama's re-election to the US president, he said that as a large company with a market capitalisation of $242.7 billion, Microsoft would work with Obama and global governments on issues such as data privacy, good engineer immigration and patent litigation.

Previously, the release of Windows 8 had attracted the attention of EU regulators and warned Microsoft not to repeat previous mistakes and limit consumers ' choice of browsers to new operating systems. The dispute has caused the software giant to pay a fine of more than 1.3 billion dollars.

On the U.S. economic outlook, Mr. Ballmer urged politicians to take action to tackle the deficit, but he did not talk about whether to focus on spending cuts or raising taxes. "It's not about how much is spent, it's about balancing spending and income," he said. The election is over and it's time to get back to work. ”
