Well it costs about 600€ less here

This particular product may not appeal to me, however there is absolutely no denying that Microsoft has been killing it over the last few years. Props to them!
Edit: Surprised they're going for this approach again with 10 S, considering how hard Windows RT flopped.
That's because they're the new Apple. They are doing some truly innovative things, and coming up with some absolutely killer products. Windows 10 isn't half bad either.
Argument could say retina screen is outdated too since we are living in a 2k and 4k world now, besides 14 hours of battery Apple could only do 9 now.Non-retina screen though...
Looks good...
...wait... cut down version of the OS? I can't install Chrome? Sublime? I have to presumably buy a full version of Windows at Retail price?
... no HiDPI screen?
Ah well. It started out interesting.

Windows 10 is an unusable mess.
Half the planet is still on 7 for a reason.
True, but for one, schools will not pay that price when they buy them in bulk, and second Microsoft's hardware always has a premium price. They probably do this intentionally to avoid undercutting other PC vendors and putting the Windows OEM market at risk.$1k is still to expensive though

Presumably it's the same material that they use on the Surface Pro keyboard, which doesn't have any such issues. It feels very comfortable actually.Although it looks nice I must say that grass looking thingy is probably not something I am interested in...
Sucks oils and probably impossible to clear...
the guy that was introducing the laptop wrote on the screen with the Surface pen and he had to support the back of the Surface laptop with his hand, at that point that's where it failed!
It's nice as a compact travel mouse, but IMO can't compete with a "real" mouse. The problem is that due to the empty space under the arc the grip (thumb and pinky) is not good.Arc Mouse is the best product design to ever come out of MS and they did it 7 years ago but very few have noticed it unfortunately. Ergonomically it kills Apple mouse, it has a proper arc that actually fits very well in your hand. Sure its a gimmick mouse much like Apple mouse and various Logitech touch mice but it's the best one on the market, best looking, most practical and most useful.
They are sticking to proven design.
Lighter, thinner, faster (and cheaper) than any MacBook currently on sale. What exactly are Apple playing at? The daylight robbery that is their products becomes clearer and clearer each time somebody else brings out a new device.
