A. That is a very nice case. Mind if i ask if it was $39 at the Apple Store too? City Sleeve for 11" MacBook Air by Incase B. The Macbook Air 11.6 and Chromebook 11.6, any case/sleeve made for these models will fit great for the SP3. C. I am so taking my SP3 to the Apple store this afternoon...

Found the perfect sleeve: I'm bringing this thing to our next department meeting!

LISTEN TO THIS GUY/GIRL!, the little brightness icons over the F1 and F2 keyboard aren't for the screen, they're for the keyboard! I think there are 4 levels of brightness to the keyboard, one of them being off. So if you accidentally pressed the F1 key you might have turned the brightness all...

GunFinger app for Windows in the Windows Store Free + Pay2Play. I usually hate those free in-game purchase games but this one is an exception. First off, it's killing zombies. Second it works perfectly with a touch screen and the graphics are gorgeous. Third you can get very far and have a...

This breakdown from the Project Manager of SP3 is a great addition to the iFixit breakdown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xgw0R24xOPM&index=3&list=FL58fjc5LbBxmy2sjbQ1kJ7w Can anyone tell me what that band on his wrist is?, you can see it best at 1:25. I've been told it's a grounding wrist...

Very happy. I agree, far too much negativity on these forums... but then it's like that on most forums or review sites. People only take the time to post if they are really happy or really upset about a product... give you a skewed result. Here are my favorite things about the SP3 (and to...

Even with the dpi fixed, it still doesn't look as smooth as IE. You still get occasional but annoying font problems. And scrolling up and down using 2 fingers on the trackpad in Chrome is really jumpy. Meanwhile, IE11 has worked great from day 1. Is it finally time to switch back?

Fuzzy Fingers - The Container Store I found mine at Ace Hardware. I bought them for all my coworkers last Christmas.

As you said the general advice is to disable the scaling when you are connected to an external display. Until they release a driver or update the OS to allow different scaling on different screens, i think that's the best you can do right now. If that's even possible. If you need a 2nd...

The top of the SP3 is made of plastic. In the video i linked above he calls it the "antenna window" at 2:56.

Bookmarked. I'll keep this link handy for future gawkers. On those same lines, this game does a great job of showing off the screen as well. Lots of cool particle effects and it's fast. (It has a free demo) Riptide GP2 app for Windows in the Windows Store

Just to add to the topic, here is a great video with the Development Manager of the SP3. I've watched it a few times already, really fascinating. One question though, what is that blue band on his wrist?!? (You can see it best at 1:25)...

It says to continue using it after the first day, you can choose to pay $2 per month ($24 for a year) or download the free app of the day. I chose the free app option, but i don't think it ever downloaded anything. I've only had it for 1 day. I'll check again later. Seems pretty stable to...

Done and done: I didn't pay for it, just letting it download the daily free app. It does seem slower than i expected. No idea if it's affecting battery life since it's not open most of the time, but i'll keep an eye on it.

Short answer: no. The only built-in option for customizing the pen is choosing between Metro OneNote or Office 2013 OneNote (if you have it installed). Long answer: yes. But as you probably guessed, you have to download additional software. Here is a link: EventGhost And a YouTube video...

Do you mean double-clicking the top button on the Surface Pro 3 pen? Yup, that works too, but it automatically imports it into OneNote. So that's kinda a whole new tip & trick on it's own. :) Great idea, i'll add this in to the original post too.

Just do the part where you run the registry key fix. Don't do the part where you disable scaling. Make sure to restart afterwards. Works fine for me. Press the Windows Button then immediately the Volume Down and you will see the screen dim slightly. Unlike my Android phone it's very fast...

I did a search but couldn't find a good ole' general tips and tricks thread. So lets start one: Here are some of the best ones I've found: How to take a screenshot on your Surface Method 1: Press and hold the Windows button, and press down on the lower volume button on the side of your...

WARNING - this is not supported by Google and could cause problems later on. That said this is an extremely simple hack because the code is already written, it's just not on by default. In fact you could just edit the registry yourself in about 30 seconds. *Before doing anything you might...
