Serious question: Can someone please sit on top of a surface and surfacebook (in a closed position)?
These devices have thinner-than-ever glass (and in case of sb, an air gap) and i am concerned that carrying them in a backpack can get them destroyed by other books/whatever. Would be great to find out otherwise :)
- drglitch 11y agoTo answer my own question: http://mashable.com/2015/10/21/microsoft-surface-book-review/#jW28vdgB5kqR http://mashable.com/2015/10/21/microsoft-surface-book-review... > "I placed the Surface Book on my carpeted floor (office-style, so a pretty low-pile carpet). Then I held onto my desk and chair. I lifted both feet off the ground and gingerly lowered them onto the clipboard side of the Surface Book -- my heels and the majority of my weight were rested on the hinge. I did not move my feet or jump and down, but the device survived my full body weight (roughly 150 pounds) resting on top of it. In short, I do not see a fundamental flaw in Microsoft’s unique hinge design."
- GigabyteCoin 11y agoWould you sit on top of your laptop? I carry a thin plastic laptop in my backpack for years and have never had a problem with books crushing it. Just know that you have an expensive piece of equipment in your bag and don't toss it around.
