    I love sitting next to folks with iPads.

    Had mine since Christmas, one of the first 4300u machines, and have never had a single issue with it. Boots fine, no BSOD, I work and game with it, loads of virtual machines under VMware, I play Asphalt 8 and Reaper a lot on it. Not a single issue.

    Would this work with the Surface 2?

    The Surface RT and 2 unfortunately have a proprietary Windows version and do not support real Windows drivers. The Surface Pro and Pro 2 however not only have a full Windows OS and support Wacom tablets via the USB port. The Pro and Pro 2 however can also be used as a Wacom tablet themselves...

    Surface pro 2 with os x mavericks

    There is a thread somewhere on this forum or on WPCentral that explains how to install OSX Mavericks. It is not for the fainthearted as it requires a bit of preparation and some booting tools. In addition to that, not everything fully works, there are issues with WiFi etc.

    Horrendous Wireless Performance

    This pic shows my network performance on my SP2 in 2.4Ghz and in 5.Ghz mode ... this is consistent with what I get on my Macbook Pro and my Lenovo X1 Carbon. Router is an Asus RT-n66u ... Bluetooth off ... Bluetooth on indeed makes 2.4Ghz speeds drop like a dead fly. 5Ghz speeds are unaffected.

    Advice for buying a Surface

    With Photoshop and Dreamweaver, 8Gb RAM would be a lot more important that storage size so if anything I would go with the Pro2 8Gb RAM as a minimum. True, SSD storage is fast and allows for relatively quick memory swapping but ultimately, you will want to optimize your performance on...

    Why Did You Buy Your Surface Pro and How Do You Use It?

    I bought a Pro 2 8/512 4300u in my quasi-eternal quest for the ultimate mobile professional tool. It runs a number of VMware virtual machines for my job, it contains my private work environment, and the Metro part is mainly for leisure, browsing, games, pictures and movies. It allows me to...

    What keyboard do you use?

    The stand from the wedge keyboard also is its cover... Once u start using the keyboard you can either put the cover in your bag or use it as a stand. If you use it as a stand you have slightly more control over the angle under which you look at the screen than with the two predefined angles of...

    Best Buy promotes Jailbreaking

    I have nothing against jailbreaking, I actually think that once you buy a device, it's up to the owner to decide what he wants to do with it. For me what counts more is that you trick the customer into false expectations. Once you jailbreak an RT device, true, you suddenly create the...
