As a Surface Pro user it tickles me that Microsoft people are using iPads for the stuff the Surface was designed to excel at (no pun intended).

- baby 8y agoI really really considered getting a Surface Pro, but: * no airdrop * poor development environment vs mac's unix * apple ecosystem (this one, I really hate) So instead I bought an iPad pro. I wish Apple would make something more like the surface book 2.
- solarkraft 8y agoIf I got a tablet/laptop hybrid I wouldn't use it with Windows. Linux is a great development environment.
- baby 8y agoAh true, didn't think about that. Problems I can think about: I want to be able to switch easily to tablet mode or to draw, and it's probably better to stay on windows for that. I'm not sure how well linux is supported on the surface book as well?
- solarkraft 8y agoIt is true that pen support on Linux isn't perfect, but a friend of mine uses Xournal for his notes. Took a bit of configuring, but seems to work well. It doesn't have any ink simulation and I'm not sure whether there are apps/drivers that support it.
