I've seriously considered getting a Surface for work. I don't need one, but

As a work first and play second device, it would blow an iPad out of the water.

I work exclusively on Apple. But you

I love mine as well! If your thinking getting one don't hesitate.

How much heavy lifting can it do it Excel?

Yes...if you get the Surface Pro devices, they're full laptops in terms of specs

CougaReb

Easily.

You realize it's not an Apple product right?

So?

I have the Surface Pro 2 as well.

Jeremy

My problem with it is the price. It tries to be both things but isn't as good

Do you own a Surface Pro 2 or 3? I don't believe that a MacBook Air is better.

Re: Price -- Surface Pro 3 is much cheaper than Macbook Air + iPad

I've had the Surface Pro 2 since November...best device I've ever owned.

I will check out that app. Any other recommended apps?

Jeremy

Apps I recommend for the surface or any windows 8 device

I didn't realize they were all SSDs. Very cool, but get pricey

7/24/14 10:03am

I'm seriously considering the Surface Pro 3

Has anyone here switched from iPad to Surface?

7/24/14 10:16am

I did

cscougar

7/24/14 10:27am

I did - that is part of why I love the Surface so much--the contrast is huge

What about the addictive apps everyone uses on tablets/phones today?

yes to all of the LDS apps. But gospel library is wierd after the 8.1 update

It has some, not all

Just got back from 5 weeks in Europe using my Surface as my primary work machine

My work doesn't allow Win 8 to be used on their network yet

Windoze 8 is of the devil.

have you actually used windows 8?

molodyets

7/24/14 12:16pm

Unfortunately, yes. It sucks.

Snipe

My 4 year old finds Windows 8 to be very easy

cscougar

7/24/14 2:20pm

It's not AT ALL intuitive. It sucks. ME all over again.

My 10-Year-Old has a Windows Tablet

I've got a strong suspicion it's not IQ.

Snipe

7/24/14 8:12pm

Meaning?

coolcats

7/24/14 8:13pm

Have you used it on a touch surface

molodyets

7/24/14 9:09pm

A laptop. Hate it! On another unit

Snipe

7/24/14 9:14pm

And there is your issue.

molodyets

7/24/14 11:53pm

That makes as much sense as saying iOS sucks

cscougar

7/24/14 9:16pm

Huh, OK.
