I've had my SP4 for over a year now, and I've never had such a bad experience with any computer I've ever owned. (and there have been many). In a word, it's simply flaky. Its return from standby/hibernation is inconsistent, the touch screen frequently fails to respond to the pen or my finger, and it requires a reboot more times than I care to have to do in order to temporarily clear things up.
All the problems I'm mentioning are well documented but THEY ARE NEVER FIXED. There has been a plethora of updates, each claiming to be the one which will set things right, but it never happens.
I'm ashamed of Microsoft for putting such a bad product into the marketplace. The biggest mystery of all is why no one has been as vocal as I. Perhaps no one has the energy to raise the issue.....perhaps no one is even aware of how bad it really is....or perhaps my unit is simply defective, but I wouldn't bet on that....
