This should help Microsoft's attempt to dethrone the iPad.
Oprah is calling the Surface one of her "Favorite things" for 2012.
Here's what she says:
"The Surface, Microsoft's first tablet, feels like a Mercedes-Benz to me, people! The full-size keyboard built right into the cover makes work easy, the very smart kickstand makes watching a movie or Skyping a friend a delight, the less than a pound-and-a-half weight makes a great alternative to a laptop, and the many other features make it fun for work and play. Now, that's a wowser!"
Since Oprah moved to cable, her influence has waned, but this is still a big endorsement for Microsoft. It should help Microsoft win over a few consumers.
