    Charms bar doesn't line up

    So here's a little nag. The Charms Bar. When swiping with my finger and the Charms Bar pops out, it looks pretty good. But if I use my mouse, hold it in the top-right corner, then swipe down... the Charms Bar is off. The Window icon isn't lined up with the Window icon on the bezel. Like...

    Arc Touch mouse connect to SP3 without USB dongle

    Ah. I have the Arc Surface Edition and it is Bluetooth. I hate it though. Can't grip it. So I use Logitech Anywhere MX mouse with the USB dongle. I hate to use my USB port for it, but the mouse is that damn good. That is all. Please drive though.

    Microsoft Complete Coverage

    I concur. I've been able to exchange my SP2 using my Complete warranty several times without using a deductible. I had a couple problems with battery life and odd screen scratches. They just swapped the device out for me without question. Once they knew I had Complete warranty, I got taken...

    30 Day Return Policy... - Calendar Reminder Has Been Set

    I'm having a little buyer's remorse, myself. I have great wifi speeds (not on 5 GHz band, though) and the display is stunning. But... it gets kinda crazy hot and the battery life isn't really what I was hoping for. My issue is that I have a 2nd gen Lenovo X1 Carbon (i7/256/8GB) and while...

    OFFICIAL I just got my SP3

    By default, the SP3 has a display at 150%. And my Chrome looked terrible, too. I changed the display to 125% and then increased Chrome's magnification to 150%.... it looks pretty good now!

    Trouble Downloading Office on SP3

    Downloading and installing software from Amazon is different than other sites. I bought Acrobat Professional and I have to use Amazon's installer. Did you go to Amazon's "Games and Software Library"? Have you contacted Amazon for support?

    Surface Pro 3 web browsing speed

    I would look at the Power Plan. Try bumping it to High Performance. I would sense sluggishness when it was in Power Saver mode. Maybe the graphics rendering was throttled down? Or maybe the wifi strength is pegged down a notch. Not sure. But browsing is snappier in High Performance mode...

    Surface Pro 3 and wireless ac

    I'm not much of an AC expert. From what I understand, it allows for greater bandwidth and range, yes, but it also operates on 5GHz band, which is less crowded. Although I though 5GHz was a weaker band, no? AC routers are more expensive, much like Wireless-N were when they were new. What I...
