While all eyes are on the Surface Pro, Microsoft continues to advertise the Surface RT around the world, and as far as Windows 8 and Windows RT devices go, the company’s efforts are quickly paying off.

According to new data released by AdDuplex for the month of February, Microsoft’s Surface RT continues to be the most popular Windows 8/Windows RT device, with a market share of 6.8 percent.

HP Pavilion g6 comes second with 4.2 percent, followed by HP 2000 and HP Pavilion g7 with 3.2 percent and 1.9 percent, respectively.

In case you’re looking for the Surface Pro, the device arrived on the market this month, so the new data isn’t quite relevant for its early sales. Still, AdDuplex says the Pro tablet was the 52nd device in its study.
