If Microsoft is trying to keep its future plans regarding new products under wraps, then the company is doing a pretty poor job of it at present. With supposed details regarding the next-gen Xbox having surfaced a couple of days ago, another nugget of info has now emerged describing a new device, named "Xbox Surface".
Selected MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models are currently available with some considerable savings from U.S. retailer Best Buy. With up to $375 knocked off of prices, the retailer is apparently trying to clear stock to make room for Apple's recently released product updates.
Although Apple and Google have both been working tirelessly in efforts to improve their respective software rosters, neither have matched the work ethic of Redmond-based Microsoft, which has been announcing enhancements to its services on an almost daily basis.
