Hmm, I've tried the Surface Pro 2 (HDPI display) in a multi-monitor setup along with a standard display which is not HDPI. I didn't have any issues with it. Microsoft apparently did quite a bit of work in this area for Windows 8.1: http://blogs.windows.com/windows/b/extremewindows/archive/2013/07/15/windows-8-1-dpi-scaling-enhancements.aspx http://blogs.windows.com/windows/b/extremewindows/archive/20... Also, I very much have to agree with you on the touchpad. While the Type Cover 2 keyboard is fairly good in my opinion, the touchpad is horrendous. It is too small. There's too much friction (it feels like a microfiber cloth rather than being smooth as glass). The left/right click buttons have no tactile feedback when you click, not to mention it's hard to tell where they are located.
