abstract:The Microsoft Hardware Group, commonly known as Microsoft Hardware, is a division of Microsoft which designs and manufactures computer hardware, including a range of input peripherals as well as the Xbox gaming console, Microsoft Surface tablet, and Zune digital media player. It also produces drivers and other software for integrating the hardware with Microsoft Windows and other products.
