    Multiple docks and settings, forever updating settings.

    This looks interesting. One thing that drives me crazy is the sizing of windows when applications open. Do you know if Displayfusion can help with this. That is the main thing that I don't like about the standard functionality when going from docked to undocked. There is a little dance that...

    Microsoft Announces New Surface Pro at Shanghai Event

    I hadn't thought about the color thing... good point. That is probably why they unbundled the pen.

    Surface Pro Future

    What I don't get is the 2in1 category with the 360 degree hinge. I would never want to use one of those as a tablet. The Surface Pro is the right way to do it. When I'm at my desk, I remove the keyboard and fold it down as flat as it will go to be a note taking tablet; using my 4k display as...

    Predictions on how buggy new Surface Pro firmware will be?

    I returned the SP4 I bought to wait and see what the new announcement would bring. Now that its out and looks to get a big boost in battery life (along with many other refinements), and thoughts on how buggy it will be? It seems that with other SP variants, its taken them quite a while to work...

    256 GB EVO microSDXC Card - Excellent Performance

    Have you used it that way, and if so how did it perform?

    Surface Pro Future

    Given today's announcement, I think its clear that the Surface Pro not only has a bright future, but also the competition is getting better in this category as well so the whole category has a future. I really think this is going to canibalize the pure tablet iPad category more and more as...

    Microsoft Announces New Surface Pro at Shanghai Event

    The media is still going crazy about no USB-C, but I personally could care less about that. I believe its a standard that isn't a standard since what works or doesn't with it is a mystery. I've been looking at an Acer Switch Alpha and it has a USB-C port... some charges work with it and some...

    Problem with OneNote

    If you log into Office365 in your browser and go to OneDrive, you should see one (or more) OneNote notebooks there. I had 3 of them. One was the one I used, and two were there for reasons I can't explain. I know that when I setup the Surface Pro, it added another one. I deleted the extra...

    Surface Pro x alternatives if no SP5

    The i5/8GB/512GB option is what I would prefer to have, frankly. My daily driver at home is a Mac Mini with i5/8gb/1TB SSD, and a second 512GB SSD (which used to be my primary). This is primarily that big though because my wife fills her phone with pictures that I offload ever month to that...

    Surface Pro x alternatives if no SP5

    and this... updated HP Spectra x2 to Kaby Lake (up to i7, not the m's), USB-c, and ditching the fabric back on the keyboard. And the pricing is not crazy, even with including the keyboard. HP gives Envy laptops an edgier look, updates Spectre x2 with Kaby Lake CPUs

    Surface Pro x alternatives if no SP5

    Wow, they look like nice specs. These devices seem to have so many firmware problems when they first come out though. Will be watching this one!

    Get pro4 or wait for 5

    Could have a big battery life bump too if they move to the newer processor family.

    Get pro4 or wait for 5

    I was down to a couple of days left in my 30 day return period so decided to return the SP4 and wait to see what happens next week. I'm also considering going with one of the other competitors, namely the Acer Switch Alpha 12. They seem to come close on reviews, but are about half the price...

    Details and Images of Surface Pro Refresh Leak

    Apple has done some significant "under the covers" updates to their stuff over the years when cosmetically it looked the same. Looks like the mystery will be solved in a couple of days.

    Surface Pro x alternatives if no SP5

    Ok, so this was a great plan. I walk into the Microsoft store and the guy was happy to do my return. He said... "let me guess, waiting for the announcement next week.. I think you are making a wise choice." Then the good part. I had gotten the bundle with the free dock, and the other...

    New Surface Pro

    Yes... they can go to something like Apple has done for years ... "Early 2015, Late 2016, etc.". Then there isn't an expectation of physical changes to the machine which seems like the Surface line is pretty steady on at this point.

    Surface Pro x alternatives if no SP5

    So looks like there may be a new Surface Pro coming soon - This is the new Microsoft Surface Pro That will likely be more $$$ than what I paid for the SP4, but would guess the battery life would be improved. Otherwise doesn't look like much different. I'm leaning towards returning the SP4...
