Microsoft has announced  you can buy one: Feb. 9. It uses an Intel x86 chip rather than an ARM chip,and  the Surface Pro runs Windows 8 Pro, so unlike the Surface RT tablet that debuted in October 2012, it can run standard Windows 7 applications in addition to the full-screen “Metro” apps that Windows 8 and RT debuted. The Surface RT can run only Metro apps, plus special versions of some included Microsoft Office 2013 apps.
