    LTE- How many will go to SP4 for LTE it is offered?

    Yeah I like the SP3 but I don't find it very lapable. Great thing about a hard keyboard is they could add battery life.

    LTE- How many will go to SP4 for LTE it is offered?

    Well the SP4 will be less powerful than the SP3. Will the thinner profile, lighter weight and quiet cool performance make the trade-off worthwhile? 90% of SP3 i5 users come nowhere near taxing the i5's processing power. I think for most users the SP4 would be very attractive. ** Honestly...

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    The 10135 iso continues to behave overall quite well for me except for the display port bug and occasionally fan-i-ness. On a sidenote, speaking of lucky (non)breaks. My cat knocked my SP3 off my desk the other day and the edge smacked a metal coffee table HARD. Luckily it hit right where the...

    We definitely don't want to accidentally flash the fbl_instantdeath branch.

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    It appears in display settings and will allow me to extend monitors but the monitor still gets no signal. Then if I click "Detect Monitors" it says there is no monitor. Weird.

    Here's what's odd with my external monitor. When I plug it in it registers in the Device Manager as a Monitor but the monitor fails to receive signal. Have tried this with multiple monitors and cords. Only since 10135. I'd think perhaps my video port was damaged but the monitor is being...

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    The greatest mystery in these builds is how they can work beautifully for days, then suddenly go straight to complete crap for no apparent reason. For days 10135 was practically flawless for me. And today: 1) Fan blowing full blast for no reason. 2) Back blazing hot. 3) Chrome Beta a...

    Is anyone running 10135 having problems connecting to an external monitor?

    10135 has no updates offered and runs VERY smoothly for me. Maybe those struggling with updates should try that instead? Only downside is I had to do full wipe to get 10135 to install.

    Recommend installing latest Chrome Beta and in options tell it to turn off all Chrome background processes when browser is closed (towards the bottom of advanced options).

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    I noticed this last night. After 2 days on 10135 and Avast running nearly silent, the fan last night decided to go nuts and the back got very hot. I give up trying to figure this out. It's does seem that the fan circus tends to begin after using the computer in tablet mode. Dunno.

    No updates available on 10135 build. Guess Windows isn't recognizing that. :-)

    One thing I've noticed with Avast is I'm getting some buffering issues using the Netflix app I wasn't getting with Defender. No idea if this is merely a coincidence.

    Subconscious childhood pirate fantasies? I know it sounds like I'm joking but I honestly don't have a better reason.

    Avast has also caught a couple nasties that I think Defender was missing. One was from a .js for a link I didn't even visit while on a trusted site. So far I like the Avast interface. Pleasant without being intrusive.

    I'm still in shock that all that fan business was just Defender. Crazy. :) But I guess it makes perfect sense. Totally diggin' the silence.

    Decided to like your comment so you'd have one. I find your attitude poopy and yet magical. :-) My fan hasn't fired up even once since installing Avast. Blissful silence.
