Dell drops XPS 10, leaving Microsoft's Surface as sole Windows RT tablet

Dell’s XPS 10 tablet models with Windows RT have been removed from the company’s website, which analysts said could leave Microsoft as the only vendor selling ARM-based tablets running versions of Windows RT.

The XPS 10 Web page lists models of the tablet as being “unavailable,” and points users to the Latitude 10 tablet, which runs Windows 8 and has an Intel Atom processor. Microsoft, which sells Surface RT, is now the only device maker selling a tablet with Windows RT.
