I find myself doing most of my premiere work on my SP3. I like being able to watch TV while simultaneously editing a DVD for my church while lying in bed. If you think about it, that's pretty crazy!!
Depends on what email address you use on your PC to log into OneNote. Corporate or Microsoft?
Yo, dude. Probably worth your while to talk to your IT department and upper management. The whole concept of BYOD along with cloud services, mobile connections, mobile security and Azure means or could mean, less out of pocket expense for the company since you are providing the computing power at your desk and on the road that the company now provides. Company apps and remote access would/could occur in some desktops/pages of Win 10 with the machine recording the time and charges for company business and then not pay when you are online as yourself with a Steam Connection playing whatever. I think most companies would be paying less at the outset and less (to none) in maintenance, parts and upgrades. And when you are signed in with ID/Pwd "A" you'll be not only on company time but to their cloud access and share files. When you log off and use ID/Pwd "B" you have access only to your personal cloud files, saved games and movies. Then when you leave the company they nuke the ID and Pwd and you are left with your machine to yourself.
Or do I have this whole concept wrong?
I'm pretty sure that mine would replace my work PC too... but it's a personal device and cannot connect to the work LAN, .... so the power is pretty useless unless I want to use my phone to sync to the cloud...
Regarding Windows 10: I was very near to sign up for the preview, but when I learned that most touch functions still are absent I killed that thought. Maybe in a couple of months.
I agree with everything you said, except:
Uh oh, neither I nor my SP3 got that memo (about the loss of touch functionality in Win 10).
But I will not tell my one-week-since-converting-to-Win-10 SP3 about that "loss". That way it will still feel all 8 fingers and two arthritic thumbs without missing a beat just like 8.1. And I did not install it VM, but straight up.
I do recall that the one click and two click button functionality on the pen is temporarily missing with W10, but I can live with that until next month (please MS, I love the pen and One Note.) But touch functionality...no. Unless you are talking about the charms bar, in which case Win+C works. Although if a KB is not attached you can swipe from the right and the Charms bar shows up pretty as you please.
Could someone please forward the memo.
