Microsoft has just rolled out a brand new Surface commercial, once again slamming the iPad for being too expensive for what it has to offer.

The new ad claims that the Surface 2 is a much more advanced tablet, not only because it runs Windows, but also because it comes with 200 GB of cloud storage free, Skype, and other applications that are pre-installed on Microsoft’s modern operating system.

The offer is part of a limited-time promo launched by Microsoft a couple of weeks ago and bringing additional SkyDrive storage and other accessories at special prices available via its online store.

If you were wondering, the Surface 2 is regularly priced at $449 (€327), while the most affordable iPad 2 comes with a price tag of $399 (€291) in an entry-level hardware configuration.
