I haven't played around with it yet but I want to. Looks promising.
Or just buy an 11" Macbook Air. I know it's not a tablet, but it would get the job done better and would be cheaper!
In order for the pressure sensitive table to be any good for serious artists it would have to be bigger than 10". My wife does work on 1.2GB photoshop files and her 21" Cintiq doesn't even feel big enough.
Microsofts tablet is too expensive to be a toy and too diminutive to be a production machine. I can't think of anything serious that I'd want to do on a 10" M$ tablet. If it's something quick like browsing/email then an iPad would be better. If it something serious like graphic design or programming then I want a bigger screen.
The iPad maybe easy to use but the applications are one trick pony's due to Apple's AppStore rules. The iPad would be a great device if the software rules were relaxed.
So you basically can't have a 32GB version of this at all.
Tablets won't replace laptops until they're truly better than a laptop, and I think the surface pro hits the nail on the head in that regard. Wether you like it or not, the surface is the future.
If there was a 32gb version then there’d only be 2gb left for the user
Tablets have already replaced laptops for 99.9% of the general public.
Google should re-brand "chrome os" to "android os" and let pc manufacturers proliferate it. Shoppers in Costco, Wallmart, and developing countries would love to buy an "android pc."

Of the 64 GB of solid-state storage on the entry-level $899 model, only 30 GB of that is free for the user, according to Microsoft.

Yeah. I've always seen tablets, including the iPad, as a gimmick. I've never been able to justify to get one, since it can never replace a laptop.
I think this Surface Pro will get MS nowhere.
My 21" Cintiq died years ago and I started using my 12" backup Cintiq while I waited for my new 21" to arrive. But after a week of using the 12" Cintiq I realized it was actually big enough. So I canceled the 21" order and I've been using the 12" Cintiq for years now.In order for the pressure sensitive table to be any good for serious artists it would have to be bigger than 10".
