Microsoft took some shots at Google and Android tablet makers this week when it released a white paper that claimes Windows tablets are a better choice for education and government work



From Neowin:

Microsoft is preparing to officially announce new members of its Surface family of tablets on Monday, and the company is hoping to have its hardware used more by schools and government organizations. Standing in the way of that goal are a wave of cheap tablets made by a ton of different OEMs that use the Android OS.

In a white paper published by Microsoft this week (in PDF format), the company tries to make the case that educational intuitions and government agencies would be better off buying a Windows 8 tablet rather than an Android device. One piece of concern is with security.
