12 GB tablet MS Surface RT employs operating system and applications

When it became known types of tablets from Microsoft, then the natural question arose, why the minimum amount of internal memory has been chosen equal to 32 GB, while the vast majority of its competitors exist in versions with 8 or 16 GB of internal memory, which can significantly reduce the cost of the device. In terms of pure technical characteristics, if considered the main competitor Apple, the proposal for a sum with the simplest iPad tablet with twice the memory, looks as competitive advantage. In practice, it depends on what part of the amount of internal memory the operating system. And then, Microsoft has clearly lost the Apple, because the operating system Windows RT was 12 times more than iOS for iPad. Operating system Windows RT on the tablet Microsoft Surface RT takes as many as 12 GB. Not alone, but with "a set of applications." That is how it should be understood Microsoft says Ricardo Lopez (Ricardo Lopez), which is an online conference when asked about the amount of free space in the memory tablet, said that such would be about 20 GB. In fact, in spite of twice the size of built-in storage is no double advantage over the 16-GB iPad tablet Microsoft Surface RT with 32 GB is not. Also, it serves as the answer to the question why there is no 16-GB version of the model - in itself does not have enough available memory to store a significant amount of user information that is being proposed to the absurd. Buy a $ 500 tablet with 4 GB of memory, hardly anyone will be.
