I have been called the biggest A-Hole in podcasting. Usually by Dave. On multiple occasions. In the same day, by Dave. Seriously.

Not today.

Find out who, or what has gotten a hold of my brain after the jump! As you all may know, Doc and I traveled to Microsoft Studios in Redmond, WA over the weekend, on Bill Gates dime, to preview Microsoft’s Surface Computer. Some of you reading this may have seen a little video on Youtube with SG’s take on Microsoft’s latest gadget.

If not, click here.

Now that you’re back, you’ll probably expect the rest of the article to read like this:

“So then Doc and I were attacked by Microsoft ninjas and forced to repent our video…”

Yeah, it didn’t really go like that. Ya see, they actually are/were huge fans of the video. So huge, that when they were taking pictures of the new employees that they had hired that day, they asked Doc and I to take photos that would go up on the company wall along side the rest of the Surface employees. Pretty cool, huh?

In fact, all of the people we met were really, really cool. Kyle Warnick, Senior Marketing Communications Manager, and Ali Vassigh, User Experience Manager, in particular were extremely nice, even in the face of our jackassery as we filmed around the studios and the surface computer. I also want to thank Kevin and Cindy from Edelman for shepherding us around, it was great to meet them as well.

So, what did we see? What did we experience? Well, you’ll learn more about that in the coming days. Also, watch for our exclusive coverage of Surface’s latest info and a another exclusive regarding a Surface only game that Doc and I were the first people, outside of Microsoft to see and get hands-on time with.

Yep, no bashing, no trashing, just a sincere thank you from myself personally and the rest of the folks at Sarcasticgamer, the Surface folks could not have been nicer.
