Microsoft suffers another temporary Surface Pro shortage

Less than a week after Microsoft began taking reservation orders for its 128GB Surface Pro tablet, the company on Thursday again slapped a sold-out sign on its website.

Thursday�afternoon, Microsoft's online store displayed "Out of stock" and refused to accept orders for that configuration. The message remained in place Friday. On Saturday, the website said you can order now for shipment by March 1.

The new shortage makes Microsoft's blog post of Feb. 15 seem prescient. Then, as the company announced it would start taking orders for the 128GB Surface Pro, it warned customers that, "Once inventory is depleted, the system will show as 'out of stock' until new inventory is available to ship."

That's exactly what it did.
