    I assume you did a system cold boot, right? Hold down the shift key and click Shut Down and it does a cold boot.

    Have to dis/re connect 3 times to get rid of general failure

    You can do a cold shutdown by hitting shift+ clicking the shutdown entry on your start menu. I haven't seen anything it doesn't fix yet.

    When I am on a 9+ hour flight this weekend and I am able to play games on the plane, I will be very glad I was an "early adopter."

    Chrome Crashing

    This is something in Canary. It randomly crashes when I have certain plug-ins enabled. It will crash until you re-install them. Getting sick of it, too. Used to love Chrome so much.

    SurfaceBook with Surface dock and two external displays

    You have to make sure you are on the very latest driver revisions and have done a real shutdown and restart (shift+click shutdown in the start menu). Reddit link removed.

    SD card only goes in half way

    Is it just me or do SD cards tend to hit the battery hard? It seems like as soon as I put one in that my battery life takes a hit.

    Anyone purchase the HDMI Wireless

    I have heard tell of 1080P content making these wireless gadgets drop frames because of the amount of bandwidth required to show them. Any issues with slow video or blocky or dropped frames?
