I’m not the parent commenter, but tab and memory management has definitely gotten better due to increased RAM. However there’s still no guarantee that your hn tab will persist after opening half a dozen potentially media heavy additional tabs. I’d write that lengthy comment in a separate note-taking/writing app.
On the other hand I still regard the iPad as a fantastic device made for browsing, reading, media consumption an dlight work. The fact that it’s light, small and so portable enables you to always have it ready and nearby on the couch, out in the garden, at the coffee table. It’s a feature that’s hard to explain. Unless I’m doing real work, my iMac hardly gets any use these days.
The surface might handle these tasks just as fine, but I guess you’d give up at least some convenience due to the fact that, at least to me, the surface seems like a ultrabook first, tablet second.
