Until I see actual numbers I take any advertising material like this with a hefty grain (nugget?) of salt. As far as we know they went from 1000 people using the trade-in program last year to 5000 using it this year. Yes, a big uptick, but not necessarily meaningful until we get to larger numbers. I've seen/used the Surface and honestly it's a lot like the iPad Pro in that it feels like the sort of computer I'd happily hand to someone who doesn't actually need a PC, but I'd hate to have it be my development experience. The Surface is a bit more full-featured due to it having less of a sandboxed app model, but it's underpowered for the stuff I do with a computer. On the other hand the new MBP is pretty good. It has some annoyances (USB-C annoys me once every couple weeks so far, and the keyboard takes getting used to), but it's fast, light, and has a beautiful display. And I can run everything on it that I need to.
