Rumor has it that the next Surface systems is coming soon, perhaps at Microsoft’s late April BUILD conference. Now it seems the company may be looking to clear out inventory in preparation of that announcement.

Every version of the Surface Pro 3 except the entry level Core i3 model has been slashed by $100, starting with the Core i5, 128GB version, which is now just $899.

The quicker and more expensive models have received an even more aggressive $150 discount, however. That includes the Core i5 and i7 models with 256GB solid state drive, and the Core i7 model with 512GB SSD.

Microsoft has not said how long the sale will last. It could end today, or it could continue until the next Surface models are announced. Budget-minded buyers might try to wait out for an even better deal, but don’t hold your breath; these cuts are already deep, particularly on the Core i5 model.

This year, however, the Surface Pro 10 is reportedly coming out. And unlike previous versions of the Surface Pro, this one might finally reinvent this device into something that profoundly fulfills the promise of what it always could be.

Apple’s Vision Pro is just a couple of days from landing on people’s heads, with many speculating how much of a success -- or not -- the tech giant can make of its most important product launch in years.

A key factor is expected to be the level of interest developers show in creating custom-made apps for the mixed-reality headset, with some major platforms such as Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube deciding to hold back from offering bespoke apps.
