Same impression here (i7 512) Edit: 30 minuten after the update. Fan behaviour back to normal ...

I have seen this happen on my 2 monitors (2x Lenovo 2934z in 2560x1080) whenever the Apple iTunes services drive up CPU usage up to approx. 35%. That is where the CPU temperature also starts to rise to the 80 degrees Celsius zone+ and the displays occasionally start to blank out. Not entirely...

Interesting. I also received 3977 yesterday. That seems even newer than either Intel or Station-Drivers have on their websites ... They are still at 3960. It might be that only those who already went from an MS specific driver to the Intel Retail driver will get this update. Not sure though.

I fact, for my holidays I usually load up my (then current) laptop with kids movies and by using Windows Media Center (MCE) and an USB infrared adapter, my kids are perfectly capable of using the remote to navigate MCE and watch movies themselves. Last week, my SP3 served the same purpose...

Depends on what email address you use on your PC to log into OneNote. Corporate or Microsoft?

That's wat they invented Mac address spoofing for ;-)

Great article, I couldn't agree more.

16 important ones and 1 optional. No firmware update (yet)

Netherlands, purchased it in the MS Store for the NL.

And this article where it is confirmed that the current SP3 accessories will be future proof to some extent. http://microsoft-news.com/microsoft-surface-pro-3-accessories-will-be-compatible-with-the-next-generation-of-the-pro-line-of-surface/
