Microsoft has a full lineup of computers that all rival Apple's Macs - here's how to choose between them

Darren Weaver/Business Insider

Microsoft Surface Studio is a really cool, gigantic touchscreen Windows 10 PC.

When Microsoft released the first Surface tablet, it was mainly trying to show computer makers what a touchscreen PC might look like and what it could do.

Now, though, the company has turned the Surface into a full business, offering a lineup of four different devices. And the computers are so good even Apple is following Microsoft's lead.

There are cheaper computers out there. But if you want one that combines the premium quality of an Apple device with the flexibility (and touchscreen) of a Windows 10 laptop, you should check out the Surface line first.

Here's how to choose among the different Surface computers, going from the least expensive model to the priciest.
