AT&T Buys "Surface" -- Won't Advertise iPhones

AT&T and Microsoft announced today that Surface computers will be used to market eight different phones, but -- SHOCK! -- not the Apple iPhone. The company will allow customers to place a phone on the screen, then use their fingers to DRAG-AND-DROP RINGTONES AND GRAPHICS onto the phone. They'll also be used to let people interactively explore the features of phones. Surface is the first commercially available full-size next-generation computer (the Apple iPhone was the first overall). Whoever is first to send me a picture of a Surface "blue screen of death" wins a prize.

What's the prize? A dinner date with Mike? A box of Mars Bars? A brand new Apple Air Laptop? Did you know that back in the 80s some food company did a lottery and the prize was a million dollars or dinner with Joan Collins (this was when Dynasty was at its peak) and the company never announced what the winner picked. So, you Mike's List/Raw Feed readers out there...which would you pick if Mike actually offered...dinner with Mike or a new Apple Air Laptop?

Come on John, you could have at least changed his shirt color! :-)

Hmmm, dinner with Mike or a million dollars? I'll take the dinner! Anyone know if he's married ;-)
