That's massive...17" laptop bags are hard enough to find, how about a case/bag for an 18" tablet!!

Yeah, I've heard people griping about the step back they took with Onedrive for awhile now. I didn't get to use it myself, since my old computer couldn't upgrade to 8.1, and my new one went straight into the Win10 beta. But from what I've read, it seems like I missed out on some good stuff.
Though Win10 does inherit some things from Win8. Mainly the dual touch/mouse interface. The only difference is that this time, they (arguably) made it work.

It looked more like undo, rather than eraser, that is when you applied the eraser it would simply undo whatever you did after putting the pen tip down.
Hardware is not as important as a stable OS. I'll take OS X over Windows anytime.
Windows 10 has been wonderful from a UI and workflow perspective. It's the same user intuitive interface that has existed in windows since '95 with the "one place to do everything" start menu (which win 8 broke!), but far better for both desktop and tablet experience.
There are actually many UI improvements that make it much more usable in a desktop environment. The "charms" with their stupid invisible "activation spots" are gone, "modern" apps can run in a window on the desktop and have visible control elements instead of relying on gestures, it switches seemlessly between desktop and touch mode if you have a hybrid device etc. pp. All is not perfect (e.g. it's completely stupid and confusing that there are two different settings apps), but it's a big improvement particularly for desktop users.This is such a contrived argument. Windows 10 is actually *exactly* like Windows 8.1 and if you didn't notice, your precious Start Menu is just the Start Screen, but smaller. Mind blown.

That said, Microsoft's new privacy policy with its intentionally vague and evasive lawyer-speak, the telemetry functions that cannot be turned off, and the forced updates without proper descriptions are a big turn off for me. It's a shame really, because the OS itself is pretty good.
Talk about contrived arguments. Of course you could turn them off, but then getting at the functions becomes even more cumbersome.From one contrived argument to another.. fine. To your two points on desktop environment:
The Charms could always be turned off in Windows 8.1 so they were always gone, if that was your thing.
Your point being?Modern apps running in a Window is Windows 8.1 with Modern apps running in a window.
Whatever. I bet you've never even used the to versions on a hybrid device, otherwise you'd know how much smoother it works.On Windows 10 switching between desktop and touch controls seamlessly, sure but that's not because Windows 8.1 couldn't switch between desktop and touch, it's just that you seemingly didn't want to learn how. It was always there.
No no, you can't "talk about contrived arguments" and then admit that "oh yeah of course you could always turn that feature off derpdeederp".Talk about contrived arguments. Of course you could turn them off, but then getting at the functions becomes even more cumbersome.

I'm old enough to remember my old HP TC1100 that already had a Pen and a second internal hot swappable battery and a detachable keyboard and a docking station allowing to connect to another monitor. All of that was already here just take a look.
Now think, it was here over 10 years ago!!! and it took MSFT over a decade to get to the Surface?
Prototype..not the same deal. We are talking about the real life here, something you can buy
Surface is for a tight budget, if you don't have money for a tablet+laptop+even a phone, buy a surface
you know is adobe cc for ipad for touch right?
http://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/catalog/mobile.html and im sure for ipad pro will be desktop class app
so you can't run on your rMBP adobe CC even if they had nothing to do with OSX you still can bootcamp.
Yea you are paying over 1000$ just to touch your app...this is no real and mature reason. You just want a surface pro because is a nice product and thats all and because you "CAN'T work on your already bought devices"
