Microsoft plans to announce new Surface hardware soon, but it's unlikely to be a new Surface Studio. Some of the most iconic Surface devices now lie in the Microsoft Graveyard. I have a plan to fix that, and it will make Microsoft money instead of costing the tech giant.
I outlined 4 steps to save the Surface brand last month, but I've since thought of one more: Microsoft should license its abandoned designs to other OEMs. And the first design that another manufacturer should adopt is the Surface Studio, but as a monitor, not an All-in-One.
