Incidentally Microsoft Surface Tablet will be competing with its OEM partners in the tablet segment but both the companies and the software giant are seemingly unperturbed by this turn of events, at least that is what the Redmond-based company will have us believe.

Acer is the only company that has publicly protested against this, grumbling about the company competing against them even as it was working with them to run its software.

ASUS Tablet 600 will run Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core central processing units (CPUs) and a 12-core graphics processing unit (GPU). It will have an external keyboard where the tablet can plug in, making it look and operate like a laptop.

Lenovo is developing the ThinkPad Tablet 2, which will run Windows 8 Pro, the version of the new OS for the x86-based processor platform. It will run an Intel Atom-based processor and, like the Asus product, feature a 10.1-inch diagonal screen.
