    One Drive extra space?

    Well you'd have to use the unit account on the Pro 3 then, not your personal one as the extra space gets added to the Microsoft account that is linked to O365

    Office 2010 vs. Office 2013 vs. Office 365 for meeting notes?

    Well, no it's not. A stylus would only be useful if: 1. You are able to use it as good or better than a normal pen and paper. 2. Given 1, that this is a meaningful way to store notes in a meeting. If after a meeting you have to type them up to be sent to your boss/colleague etc. then you might...

    question about background picture

    ^^This. The colour won't affect battery unless it is an AMOLED screen. A Nokia Windows Phone with an AMOLED screen for example does not illuminate black colours, that pixel just stays off, and therefore does not use as much power when display black colours (though I'm not sure all AMOLEDs do...

    I3/I5 and "is this normal" questions.

    Re-read my post, that's exactly what I said :P Old games..."on a modern PC it still run everything at max, even if it has no need to."

    I3/I5 and "is this normal" questions.

    My thought process here would be that a game from the 90's would likely be expecting to be played on a PC with much less power than what we have today, so there is probably some code in their somewhere that says "set CPU Speed/GPU Speed to MAX" just to get the best performance from a Pentium 3/4...

    A solution to poor battery life and connected stand-by battery drain

    That might be good, they could implement it a bit like Apple do, so when you go into recovery, you connect to WiFi and it downloads a fresh recovery image rather than using a (potentially months old) local image.

    Surface pro 2 or Pro 3?

    Having had the SP2, and now the SP3 - it is no contest. There is not a single thing that isn't improved by the SP3. Let's look at the points you've mentioned: bring to classes - the weight and thinnest are much improved with the SP3. take notes - the SP3 has IMO much better pen that feels much...

    Old devices still linked to my account...

    Hi guys, When you go in to the Store, then click on "Account", then "My account" it shows the names of devices linked to your account. What's worrying is that even after I've reset it and sold it, the device is still there, but now appears with the name the new person has given it! This...

    I think its having two chargers is a must

    I don't have need for one, I treat it the same as my phone. Charge at bed time, and that full charge lasts me the day. I never take my charger to work, it always stays home. The only time my charger moves is if I'm staying over in a hotel or something similar.

    Are bank underwriters incredibly dense or just stupid?

    I would not trust this person to aid you financially! Maybe dumb it down to: "I sell an Angry Birds". "People pay me money for an Angry Birds".

    Surface Pro 3 is one of the most breakable tablets you can give this Christmas

    If one of the most important things you look for in a tablet it how well it withstands drops, then I recommend not getting a tablet!

    Solved IE 11 desktop don't change me anymore homepage

    If it comes back at start up it's likely still malware then, but the not-so-evil kind. I'd recommend downloading CCleaner and using this to thoroughly, thoroughly check startup items and scheduled tasks. Also just check your installed programs for anything related Facebook/games/browser etc...

    Type cover opinions

    I may be wrong in the exact working here...but my iMac's K/B and mouse (both of which are bluetooth) work before boot too, all the cmd/option/p/r etc boot commands work as soon as the device is on, so I assume there must be a way for MS to implement this on the Surface too? And I think one...

    How is that a SP3 boots up considerably faster than an ipad air 2?

    The cheap netbooks that used to run Linux I assume.

    Considering putting win 10 TP on my old Dell

    Just check when installing Win 10 that it is not going to wipe the recovery partition. Though as you said hopefully you won't need it!
