Honestly, I've never seen the sort of moderation that's going on around here. It's straight out of minority report or something. They talk about cops abusing their power, they should come check out this forum. I've seen this quite a few times... "oh, we feel like this conversation is going to be...

Do you have any USB devices connected to it? This sort of thing usually happens when you have bad drivers, but surface is a bit different since MS makes both the hardware and the software. If it is not something you installed or outdated drivers, this could be due to a hardware failure. Corrupt...

Mine crashed today when I tried to connect to Starbucks WiFi and then tried to switch to my phone's WiFi hotspot when the first attempt was unsuccessful. But that's been the only crash. Is it heating up by any chance? Try running speedfan or something to check your temperatures. Also, have you...

That sucks. I wouldn't pay $80 for the connector. That's why I hate on the proprietary connectors; they are so yesterday and some companies have the audacity to bring them back. If you wanna go on a budget, you can get the RT adapter and with some soldering you might be able to connect it to...

I had a similar issue. I kept looking at my "My Pictures" folder in One Drive, which was empty.

The first challenge I faced doing a sample project was that license agreement pop up you get when you load up a metro project in visual studio. I don't see myself clicking yes on that; instead of sucking up to the development community (like apple did), they throw feces at us. "Some data is sent...

Thanks you indeed. I was thinking about looking for a comprehensive list like this, and here it is.

:) As far as I know metro apps are designed in wpf; I know wpf. I'm planning on finding out how hard it really is to write metro apps.

I didn't realize I was un-chilled.

I hope MS pays you for making up excuses for them. As I said, I bought it to do real work. I am not gonna play around with the silly metro. Yeah, sure I could get a "real" laptop but this thing is advertised and sold as one. All I'm asking for is a smooth desktop experience on a ~$2000 hybrid...

the reason I bought a surface pro and not another tablet was that it is advertised as a fully functioning PC that could run traditional windows apps like ff and chrome. And unless I'm completely wrong, ff and chrome don't have surface or tablet specific apps. So if my desktop can run them fine...

I haven't received the keyboard cover yet, and I keep clicking on the text fields thinking that the soft keyboard would pop up by default like on my android phone. It doesn't. I searched it online and came across a bunch of threads that suggest it's that way by design. This happens in desktop...

It comes down to what you wanna do with it and how long you are planning on keeping it. The problem with the i3 is that you get 4gb of ram and 64 gb of disk space and a good chunk of that is used by the os and its future updates. You can buy sd cards, but might as well put the money towards the...

Got my i7 sp3 the other day and feel like bitching a bit. Why is Firefox so darn slow and laggy? Google maps doesn't even zoom and stalls. How come "by design" clicking on text fields doesn't open the on screen keyboard in the desktop mode? wtf kind of design is that?? Why can't they just give...
