    Macgirl here, considering dumping my Mac and ipad for a SP3

    Interesting turn in this conversation. I will make a short comment about the tangential discussion and get back to the subject at hand. Marriage IS an exclusive institution that sadly has taken the brunt of this post-modern world to the detriment of many. Once we start to water down the...

    What the HECK is inside this part of the SP3?!?!?

    I had a similar issue with my first SP3 where the screen would stop responding to finger input. I posted it here: http://www.surfaceforums.net/threads/touchscreen-calibration-problem.10563/ I ended up replacing it with a new unit and everything has been fine since.

    Sick of fingerprints!! Solution?

    1. Wash your hands more often. Natural body oils build up over time, so if you don't wash your hands often, you WILL build fingerprints on the screen faster. 2. Don't eat while using it. Common sense, but just pointing it out anyways. 3. Clean it more often. It's a touchscreen device...

    Drawings that you have done with your surface

    This is a picture my daughter drew on my Surface using Bamboo Paper. She drew something else, but it didn't save.

    Microsoft Explains why the Surface Pro 3 over the Mac

    They are trying. It seems all MS stores are starting to have this cookie cutter setup, like many tech stores. If you look carefully at her eyes, you can still see that she is reading off the prompter. I might send this over to a friend who asked about the SP3 instead of a laptop.

    Agreed, if only they'd sell those NFL waterproof custom cases.

    Solved Windows 10 on VM or Dualboot?

    I'm using hyper-v to run Windows 10 in a VM. I didn't want to risk my work SP3 with the technical preview, just in case I run into issues that would prohibit me from working. If it were my own SP3, I might've considered going all in.

    Secure Format SP3 For Return

    http://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-ca/support/warranty-service-and-recovery/restore-refresh-or-reset-surface-pro See the section about Reset from Windows sign-in screen. If that doesn't work, then use the USB recovery method as noted in that link as well.

    Microsoft Warranty Service - Be Careful!!!

    So how did you purchase it in the first place? Online directly from the Microsoft store? As others have said, if you went through the proper MS channels for repair, they are responsible for the damage as it was their shipping provider as they gave you a return waybill.

    Microsoft Warranty Service - Be Careful!!!

    I agree with ipaq_101 and leeshor. I feel bad for you that you're in this situation. No shoebox would ever be strong enough to take the punishment of shipping back to Microsoft. I honestly wouldn't even trust the box that the SP3 came in to ship back to them. Hope things work out for you...

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    For those who went all in and installed the technical preview on the bare metal, are you ok with having to reinstall when the final release comes out?

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    Finally was able to get it up and running in a hyper-v. I'm not willing to go all in with this technical preview, but from the initial setup, it runs pretty quick, even in the hyper-v with 1gb of ram. Going to do as much as I can in it and see how well it goes.

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    You mean this one? This is an awesome video and I'm not even a creative type person. What was the paint phone app thing at the end? That was amazing.

    Can the i5 SP3 drive dual 1920 x 1080 screens?

    Not true. I have used the USB dock since day one when I got my SP3 and its always run silent, not taxing the CPU at all. With all the new firmware and driver updates, the fan on the SP3 rarely turns on, unless I am specifically taxing the system by running a graphic intensive game or a utility.
