It was announced as the revolution of the digital whiteboard to make more productive lives and business meetings, but Surface Hub is nothing more than an all-in-one to as many as 84″ with Windows 10. There will also be in version 55″. During the presentation event on Wednesday, Microsoft has unveiled a new category of product specifically designed for the corporate environment. Surface Hub is a sort of all-in-one computer for consulting group content of various natures characterized by wide diagonal display for the two models planned, from 55 and 84 inches both in 4K resolution, which will make use of the new features of the Windows 10 interfaces.
