Apple Pay does work in Canada, but it only works with American credit cards. I use it in Canada all the time.

I'm having the exact same issue on Firefox / Windows 8.1 on an Intel Iris 5100, so it's probably an issue with Intel drivers.

Lenovo is a bit more than 10% indirectly owned by the Chinese government. I don't think they would ever agree to such an acquisition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenovo#Ownership

I don't understand Chrome apps. They require installation and only work on Chrome, so they come with none of the benefits of the web. They are slower and uglier than native Windows/Mac/Linux apps. What's the point?

I just tried this on my Surface Pro and although performance is really lacking and pinch to zoom does not work, I am excited about the possibility of using other browsers than IE11. Chrome for Windows 8 has been abandoned since release so I

Windows Phone 6 sucked. Windows 7 on tablets sucked. In both of these cases, Microsoft was slow to react improving their products.
