Microsoft Surface Pro series, runs Windows RT to Windows 8.1 therefore can be infected by all the common Windows malwares
Android malwares are discovered every day
There's been a recent Ransomware on iOS (not even a month ago)
>Mobile malware is quite rare
Yeah, so rare.

Also, I wouldn't dare use Google as a phone so they can now my every move. Then Microsoft's mobile is a joke. There isn't one company that is going to suite my every need. You've got to be kidding me. No, I don't like Apple. I like their product. It beats the mobile market, but since Android's gotten cheaper, well, you know how humans are.

Shit you are really not up to date on the smartphone market aren't you ?
