Wouldn't it just make sense for the Surface Pro 5 and the Surface Book 2 be the same thing? Really, I love my Surface Pro 3. I especially love the kickstand so that I can fold the keyboard up and have it take up much less surface area (no pun intended) on my counter. The only thing it really...

To start your search, try googling any of the following: MOTU, RME, Sound Blaster, M-Audio. That's just for starters as there are dozens of options. You only need one USB port but yes, most will work with a hub. I do not use audacity but most likely, there is a place in their options menu to...

For an number of reasons, your method isn't going to work very well. Find yourself an external DA/AD USB converter (there are literally dozens to choose from) and attach your deck that way. If this isn't something you normally need, check Craig's list for professional audio interfaces people...

One would think that of those thousands of configurations, they would be sure the 6 or so they offer with their name on them would be flawless.

Couldn't agree more. The Mail app is a huge step backwards from an already half-ass mail client from 8.1. It doesn't even tell you how many unread emails there are in each mail account when you look at your list of accounts...

Here's another fun thing (yes, I'm using MS feedback to gripe as well). Mail automatically setup an account called AOL. Unfortunately, it isn't my AOL account. It is an Outlook account that doesn't exist and can't be deleted from the mail accounts. Awesome.

Ok, I know. I'm going to be THAT guy. Got my Surface Pro 3 upgraded to Windows 10 and so far, I'm not impressed. It's Windows 8.1 with a more flexible start menu. System settings are still spread out over two different interfaces (really????) Edge doesn't import anything from Firefox...

Take a look at the ones from NHT. They sound and feel great and I hate ear buds as a rule.

If you are just doing wire frame views, i5 will be fine. Any sort of shading or lighting, get the i7. I use my i7 with a real time lighting simulator and it does fairly well. Still nowhere near my desktop of course...but better than I thought once the newest graphics driver came out.

I just bought this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1N82823444&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleMKP-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleMKP-PC-_-pla-_-Hubs-_-9SIA1N82823444&gclid=Cj0KEQiA99qnBRDnrYCkt4ClzZABEiQAvqPaLBcssLwyOszkMxAA7W5bWbnJVvXyEIBbW_WfSX973hsaAvQP8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds The power supply is a bit...

Well, when was the last time you really needed an optical drive while you were away from your desktop? About the only thing I use optical drives for these days is to rip movies I own to my file server. Don't let windows 10 be a factor. You will actually like 8.1 a whole lot more on your...

Have you ever attempted to change the location of your default Pictures folder? If so, that is what is crashing your camera. When it can't find the stupid hidden system folder that gets moved when you change where you want to put your pictures, the silly program just stops. Microsoft at their...

Thanks for that!

What happened to left and right swiping in desktop apps? Worked just fine in Windows 7 but seems to be missing in Windows 8. Makes browsing in Firefox much less touch friendly.

I use MediaMonkey on all my Windows devices. Absolutely the best for management.

Nope, one of the many faux pas Microsoft has done needlessly that keep people from adapting to the metro interface. I have an entire list of grievances of things like this that, if corrected would have a whole lot more people flocking to Surface and other touch based devices w/Windows 8

Thanks for all the responses. The docking stations all look interesting. Video out is probably not a necessity, but a wired Ethernet and added USB ports that will work with finicky devices are. You missed my point about default programs switching between desktop apps and metro. I get why it...

This is the device I've been waiting for! Bought my first tablet PC, a Tecra M4 about 8 years ago hoping it to be what the SP3 is today. It was a great machine and is still in use in my kitchen BTW...After that, it was a Fujisu T901. Another very trusty (but heavy and thick) tablet PC. I...
