  Microsoft Surface price tag steeper than anticipated
Time: 08:38 EST/13:38 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft will give those at next week's Professional Developer Conference a chance to do more than just write software for the Surface. They'll also have the opportunity to buy a developer version of the machine. Show related articles

PDC attendees will get a 10 percent discount, but the machine will still set them back $13,500 (£8,800), even with the discount.

The cost for developers is higher because it includes five software developer kit licences. However, even commercial customers are paying $12,500 for the Surface. That's above the $5,000 to $10,000 initial cost Microsoft said to expect when it announced the Surface back in May 2007.
