  > By "fin" you mean... the stand? So, the stand means that it doesn't stand on its own? What? Yeah. It needs the stand because it doesn’t support itself with the keyboard (like a laptop). It just doesn’t seem very lap friendly. Previous to the iPad Pro keyboard I didn’t find any solution to this problem tablets that didn’t involve some ugly clamps. I haven’t tried it, so I am interested in others’ experience with it, since it’s an interesting design.

    > It needs the stand because it doesn’t support itself with the keyboard (like a laptop). Yeah it's primarily a tablet form factor and doesn't come with a keyboard. But that makes it a tablet that stands on its own with the built-in stand. Then, plug in one USB-C cable and it's a full computer with access to all my peripherals that can drive my 3840x1600 monitor. Add the keyboard cover (which is fantastic for how thin it is, the trackpad works well, etc.) and it becomes a laptop. There are lots of problems with the Go. It's slow! Battery life is mediocre. Windows itself is a mess. Because it's a tablet that's a full computer, it's bulkier than an ipad. But it's such a neat little device.

      One more thing that stands out about the Go... This falls under Windows being a mess, but I want to second what someone else in the thread called out: the software keyboard is just frickin' terrible. "No one on the team must actually use this at home" bad.
