Microsoft announced a new lightweight laptop that runs a new version of Windows 10 customized for less powerful computers today at a press conference in New York City.
Called the Surface Laptop, the device will run the new OS, called Windows 10S, a stripped-down iteration of Windows 10 that only runs Windows Store apps. The Surface Laptop and Windows 10S are geared towards the education market, where they will go head to head against Google's Chrome OS and a passel of affordable Chromebooks, which have proven remarkably popular for educators and students.

Boasting a battery life of more than 14 hours, the 2.76 pound Surface Laptop will also come with a touchscreen.
At $999, the device will cost significantly more than many of its Chromebook competitors.
