Apple and Microsoft may have diversified over decades of learning about new emerging markets and pushing the boundaries of consumer tech, but one thing that both companies will never stop fighting for, with incessant, and relentless passion, is winning over power users.

According to business market research firm International Data Corporation (IDC), there is evidence to suggest that demand for desktop/laptop computers is expected to drop by a mere 2 percent over the next four years, with sales projections telling of a decline in computer and tablets down to 393.9 million units in 2021, from the 435.1 million units sold in 2016. However, demand for detachable computers, such as Microsoft Surface Pro and Surface Book, are expected to climb, from a current 21.5 million, to 37.1 million in 2021.

If there is one thing that Microsoft got undeniably right about creative professionals, with its most recent unveiling of their brand new Microsoft Surface Studio, is that the way most people draw, draft and design, is by using both hands, not just one.

Microsoft first all-in-one desktop PC, is indeed one of the most interesting machines to enter the market this year.
