Microsoft has published a cryptic teaser on its official Twitter account which suggests that the company may be unveiling a new Surface device tomorrow. There have been reports recently that the company has developed a cheaper Surface tablet to take on the likes of the iPad.

Apple’s new MacBook Pros aren’t cheap, and while they do pack some pretty high-end specs, like an incredibly fast SSD, it seems that maybe customers aren’t as enamored as Apple thought they would be.
