Maybe they will be a part of the Windows 9 release.

Hi all, I'm glad to have a 4-year subscription to Microsoft Office 365. I love using Word, Excel, OneNote and Outlook on the Desktop. Is Microsoft going to offer Metro-based versions anytime soon? I know a Metro version of OneNote already exists. But what about the rest -- Metro Word, Metro...

Sorry guys. The fix is completely trivial. Right click on the desktop > Screen Resolution > Make text and other items larger or smaller > slide the slider left. Fixed. Chrome webpages are small, sharp, and high resolution, just the way I like it. Works in the Stable Release and on the new 64 bit...

It's a shame; Chrome syncs my tabs, my bookmarks, has millions of extensions, supports HTML5 for gaming... It's the leading browser in almost every aspect. There must be some way to hack this to display webpages small and sharp like IE11. Has anyone else tried? Please check, and tell me if you...

Highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend the Sculpt Ergonomic Desktop by Microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/p/sculpt-ergonomic-desktop Not only is it healthy for you due to the ergonomic design, but it's BEAUTIFUL too! Best keyboard/mouse on the market.

Bad news... I installed Firefox and it, too, is blown up compared to IE11! And selecting "Disable Display Scaling on High Res Devices" doesn't fix it! Why is IE11 the only sharp and high res browser?! IE11 (left) vs. Firefox (right) IE11 (left) vs. Firefox (right) How can I fix this??

More screenshots of the issue: Even Google looks better in IE11!

P.S. -- I have the registry hack enabled. Strangely, opening up Google Chrome Dev (brand new 64 bit version) always changes the value in HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Google>Chrome>Profile>high-dpi-support from 1 to 2. Not sure if that is significant, but it happens every time I open Chrome Dev...

Hi, thanks for your comments. I want to give some more information. First, here is a comprehensive guide to enabling high DPI. It considers every solution I've ever seen for the issue: http://www.ubergizmo.com/how-to/how-to-google-chrome-hidpi-support-windows/ But actually, this is more...

Hi, just saw this thread. I made a different thread about Google Chrome display resolution. I wonder if our problems might be related. See here: http://www.surfaceforums.net/threads/google-chrome-display-resolution-vs-ie11.9792/ The screenshot is how IE11 displays vs. Google Chrome. IE11 is...

1) NFC. If it's serious about being a tablet, it needs NFC. 2) Dedicated graphics/video card. Want this to REPLACE my computer, which means I need to be able to play decent games. 3) Fanless. 4) Next-gen Broadwell processors. Important but not as important as dedicated graphics card. 5) Option...

Hi all, Please see file attached (screenshot) showing IE11 vs Chrome. IE11 is not affected and displays high DPI; however Chrome is low DPI. Please notice, the left (IE11) is sharp because high dpi (1080p resolution) is used to display more of the webpage while Chrome only displays less of the...

I spoke with Microsoft over the phone and the sales rep checked with his supervisor and confirmed it IS backlit.

Uh, guys... Why are you recommending gigantic $229 devices? Why not a $30 HDMI dongle like one of these? Am I missing something?

It doesn't seem to be working in Google Chrome on the desktop. The "scroll" icon shows up when I flick with the pen, though. Page just doesn't move.

They don't keep what in stock? Can't you just take your SP2 (on warranty) to the local store and swap it for a new one?

Ah - what does this mean for me then? I purchased my SP2 from Microsoft online (preordered, in October) and have been having issues with turning on from sleep, overheating, battery and more for a month now. Am I able to take it to a MSFT store to exchange for a new unit? Or is that not an option...

Gman: What do you mean you missed the return window? If you purchased from Microsoft you have a 1 year hardware warranty. You should be able to go to the MSFT store and ask for a replacement. Right?? P.S.. I was also wondering, if you bought it directly from Microsoft, can you exchange it at...

Actually it was $260 in December. From Dell.com among other places. Can't find any deals like that on it anymore though. However, if anybody knows of someplace, please let me know! Because I would like to buy 2 of them and save some money. And to answer your other question, you only need one...
