Regarding the Surface:
I’m currently limited to Micro$hit as the manufacturer. Also, Metro apps are still officially limited to the Microsoft Store. Lastly, it’s top-heavy. Fine if you’re using it on a table. Not so fine if you’re using it on your knees or on a soft surface.
No thanks — I’ll stick with an actual laptop, ideally with a touchscreen. I actually DON’T want a damn touch screen as the primary interface.
I type a lot, so I need a keyboard. Moving my hands from the keyboard to operate a touch screen actually takes more time than using a nipple stick or touchpad. Plus touch screens are almost always dirty/greasy.
I can see the utility for some things like CAD and drawing, but for day-to-day computing, I prefer a pointer and keyboard.
