    Surface Pro slow after BitLocker

    I have bitlocker enabled and like you didn't see much of any type of slowdown. I haven't yet disabled it though so I couldn't say if it would exhibit the same behavior as you experienced. If I were you I would contact MS and see what they say. Probably they will want you to restore the tablet...

    Surface Pro wakes in bag

    With the moko case I use it blocks the power button from being accidentally hit while in a bag. So that might be an option for you. I use this case and still use a neoprene sleeve too. Amazon.com : MoKo Rotatory Detachable Type / Touch Keyboard Cover Companion Sleeve Case for Microsoft...

    Brand new surface pro with blacklight bleeding

    Without looking up the specs and just by looking at your pic, it looks like a typical edge lit led panel. Bleeding around the edges is common with them and not worth worrying about in my opinion.

    Touch cover or Type cover

    I still can't decide on touch or type cover. I am leaning towards type, but not enough to make a purchase yet.

    Ran a couple of benchmarks on SP

    While I can appreciate your view, I think benchmarks can be useful for comparing the performance between different computers or devices. Some people like to know how a new device will stack up against what they have already. Particularly in a device like the Surface Pro, which is unique in a...

    Ran a couple of benchmarks on SP

    I am not really up on my benchmark knowledge these days, but I wanted to compare the surface pro vs my laptop for the heck of it. I just re-ran the Peacekeeper browser test using Chrome on the SP this time and the browser score was 3616 compared to Internet Explorer's score of 1993. For...

    Are you going to install 8.1 preview on your surface?

    I forgot about my desktop computer that has extra drives installed in it and even has a 128gb SSD drive just sitting there doing nothing. I can install the preview of Windows 8.1 on that computer just to try it out. It's only a Core 2 duo processor, but it still should be able capable of...

    Ran a couple of benchmarks on SP

    I benchmarked my Sony Vaio to compare to the Surface Pro and I was surprised by the results. The Surface Pro actually scored higher. The Sony Laptop scored a 3325 on PCmark 7 and a 1784 on the Peacekeeper browser test with IE. Even though my laptop is a bit older I expected it to score...

    Ran a couple of benchmarks on SP

    Just for kicks I ran two benchmarks on my Surface Pro 128gb. On PCMark 7 my SP scored a 4,623. On the Peacekeeper browser test with IE 10 it scored a 1,993. Next I'm going to run these benchmarks on my Sony Laptop with a first gen i7 to see how it compares.

    Are you going to install 8.1 preview on your surface?

    It seems like Windows 8.1 is just like a Service Pack to me and waiting for the official release will not require a reinstalling all your stuff. Preview builds always require reinstalling the official version, when it's finally released, from scratch. I think I am gonna wait it out.

    Encryption? Security?

    I use Bitlocker on my c: drive and have not noticed any performance difference between now and before I started using it. I haven't benchmarked it, but it felt fast before I enabled bitlocker and it still feels fast now with it enabled. On my microsd card I have truecrypt on it in portable...
