WiFi fine for me.

You shouldn't need it. It's built into the BIOS.

Go to "This PC" and right click on your C: drive and select Properties. Select "Disk Cleanup" and then "Cleanup System Files". You can choose all the options and it will clean up your old windows install and any extra install and windows update files. Gave me an extra 28GB of space. That's of...

I did my win10 upgrade this morning, took 45 minutes, including the download, from start to finish.

BTW, I did just see this deal on the router I own: http://slickdeals.net/f/7986043-refurbished-netgear-nighthawk-ac1900-wireless-router-r7000-for-114-99-shipped-newegg-on-ebay?src=featured It solved my wifi issues.

Which router do you have? It's sounds like pretty dumb advice that to fix the SP3 wifi issues you should replace your router, but that's what I did. I had a Linksys E3000 router, top of the line when I bought it a few years back, but the surface would always have the limited problem and when...

I think what he's saying is that he bought software that when licensed used his WiFi MAC address for authentications. When he plugs the dock in with Ethernet plugged in, the MAC address for Ethernet is different and MAC authentication fails. Am I right?

Use OblyTile: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1899865 Works great and will let you customize your start screen anyway you like.

I think your best bet for replacement pens would be eBay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR10.TRC0.A0.H0.Xsurface+pro+2+pen.TRS0&_nkw=surface+pro+2+pen&_sacat=0

I use this to remap the side buttons: http://radialmenu.weebly.com/ My setup for side buttons remapping:

After some recent updates my i7 SP3 would be burning up and the fan blowing non stop. I saw the GWX configManager running at 30% constantly. Uninstalling the KB3035583 update fixed it. This is really annoying, I hope they fix whatever the problem with this update is.

If I bought an i3 SP3 for a few hundred bucks after the warranty expired, then I would totally do this.

Mine came up as an optional driver and I too checked against Intel's latest, and it's the same version. Installed through windows update with no problem and have full graphics properties panel. I'm glad Microsoft is now offering latest Intel drivers through windows update.

Well I checked on Gazzelle and a Surface RT with keyboard and power supply in good condition is $81 while the Surface 2 RT is $131. You'll get a little more on eBay, but not that much more, maybe $50.

I use Premiere Pro CC 2014, works great. I hear good things about Sony's Vegas software. The cheapest option is $50 and is touch enabled for tablets. Check out the feature comparison here: http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/vegaspro/compare

My wife is using a wired usb Dell keyboard with no problems. She keeps a wired mouse and keyboard plugged in to the dock and only unplugs the surface.

Well, in terms of performance, the Core M on paper can do close to current i5 or i7 in the SP3, but using much less power. The current i7 in SP3 uses 15W of power, while the Core M uses 4.5W. I think that when throttling is taken into consideration due to heat, the Core M might outperform the...

It will be unveiled at GDC on March 2-6. Mostly rumor, but some of the information is directly from Microsoft. I forgot to link the source: http://www.realtytoday.com/articles/10763/20150224/microsoft-surface-pro-4-release-date-specs-price-1-tb.htm

I play Stracraft II on it, and I've played Battlefield 4, it doesn't run great, but acceptable and extra satisfying knowing that I kicked a$$ on a tablet. I also have a NeoGeo emulator and an Xbox USB Controller for Metal Slug games.

Just a small correction, the Wacom Cintiq Companion Gen 1 is a Windows 8.1 computer and cannot act as a "regular" cintiq tablet. The Wacom Cintiq Hybrid runs Android and can act as a "regular" cintiq when connected to a host computer. The Wacom Cintiq Companion Gen 2, runs windows 8.1 AND can...
