These look like great options! Might have to get a few into the lab to test out. I'll report back if we end up getting them and testing them. BTW for your pen scenario, would it help if the Surface was mounted on a floating arm mount like a drafting table so that you could pull the surface...

You could use this: Or this: http://synergy-foss.org/ Probably not *exactly* what you're looking for but could be helpful to other folks that come across your posting. Great question!

This could be an issue with the Dell monitor firmware sending bogus identifying DisplayID information such that the Surface sets a default resolution. I've seen this happen on other monitors and can often be resolved by using an alternate port on the monitor: for example use DisplayPort instead...

Cool! Thanks for posting. Looks like replacement screens are about $90-$350 on ebay...

Welcome to the forum! So you have the Core i7 model? What miniDP->HDMI adapter are you using? Is it compliant with HDMI 1.4? Have you tried swapping for a different adapter? Perhaps I'm out of touch with the Seiki developments and am thinking of a different brand, but I thought everyone was...

Why yes there is! I posted the jerry-rig instructions on github. And you can read about it on my blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danchar/archive/2015/06/30/3-in-1-dock.aspx

Hi Fredwalks, can you be a little more specific about the error messages you're receiving? Have you tried uninstalling the applications, attaching Surface to the dock, then re-installing using your license keys while still attached to the dock? If the software is balking at additional device...

Well we're up to v0.97 and now we're using freaking lasers, not just 3d printers... My wife has been using an older prototype for several months daily and no issues. She absolutely loves it. If it passes the wife test you know you're on the right track :) Check out our demo on the Microsoft...

Hey folks, you can now build your own portrait docking station to mount on a VESA arm. We got so much positive feedback on the project after showing it at the 2015 Build conference that we decided to release the STL files open source on github. Check it out...

Fred_com, great find! I actually posted a teardown guide before I saw yours. You did it first, but mine has more pictures and step-by-step for folks that might be a little more cautious: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danchar/archive/2015/05/31/surface-pro-3-landscape-docking-station-teardown.aspx...

The CherryView/Atom platform is new. Its quite possible this is an unfortunate interaction between Adobe Flash and the Intel drivers. I think going to the Adobe Flash forums and reporting the issues there with all details is the best bet: https://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer The Adobe...

There appears to be CherryTrail/CherryView driver on Windows Update catalog for some Toshiba (1179) device http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Search.aspx?q=pci\ven_8086&dev_22B1 ki106675.inf %iCHVGM0% = iCHVM_w8, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_22B0&SUBSYS_F8401179 %iCHVGM1% = iCHVM_w8...

Are you using 1440x900 or 1440x960? 900 will leave black bars. 960 will work better. I don't know how the screen resolution would cause it to crash, but certainly possible. Can you describe the exact steps that led to the crash like the apps that were open and post a dump file? You can upload...

Perfectly acceptable to have 2 surfaces! My friend has 3 ipads and a macbook. I have: Surface RT Surface Pro Surface Pro 3 Surface 3 (OK so I work for the company and some are owned by the mother-ship, but I still love them all - even the RT.)

How much would you pay for one? Perhaps I can whip one up in FreeCAD and post on thingiverse.

Ibzmesiter, welcome to the forums. Is the presentation in duplicate/clone mode? i.e. do you see the same image on the projector as on the Surface? Does the behavior change if you choose "extend" mode such that the projector and surface show different things? Hit winkey+P and choose whatever...

Y'all might be able to us my regkey hack to set lower-resolution 3:2 aspect ratio modes: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danchar/archive/2015/05/13/surface-3-intel-atom-x7-cherrytrail-multi-mon-tweaks.aspx

I just posted an article specifically for the Surface 3: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danchar/archive/2015/05/13/surface-3-intel-atom-x7-cherrytrail-multi-mon-tweaks.aspx This addresses the same concerns folks had for the Surface Pro 3 and offers a quick regkey workaround to set lower resolution 3:2...

This tweak was very helpful for our tech demo with the portrait dock prototype: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danchar/archive/2015/04/30/surface-pro-3-in-1-vesa-mounted-dock.aspx

Update! We've released the design open source: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danchar/archive/2015/06/30/3-in-1-dock.aspx ------------ See it in action starting at 22:15 in this lecture from the build conference in San Francisco: http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Build/2015/2-631 More details coming...
