Anyone own pic related? Thinking about pulling the trigger on it but not sure if it's just a meme like Microsoft's tablets.
Also, general alternatives to laptops thread.

Unbelievably good hardware, absolutely fucking abysmal software. With each new update trying to fix old issues but just making new ones.
I bought one and returned it 3 weeks later. Had two other friends who got one as well. One finally gave up 8 weeks in, and the other just asked me yesterday if I could help him sell his.
The device is an absolute nightmare. DO
NOT
BUY

Can't you just install some GNU + Linux distro?
>>53512543
No.
The computer hardware itself is very tied together with the windows operating system. You fuck up all sorts of shit if you try to install linux on it. Keyboard will stop working/endless looping reboots/ touchscreen irresponsive

If you want a prenium laptop for linux,mi would buy the pixel chromebook
Literally just microsoft's MBP

>Best Buy employees can get a Surface Book or Pro 4 for 50% off
Yes, I do have one.

Worth it even at half price though? Decently powerful?
>>53512621
Any word on when that will be?

I think the Pro 4 is a much better device, for a laptop you're better off getting something else. But the $1300 Pro 4 model for $650 is not bad at all

Welp, time to work at best buy I guess
Maybe improv everywhere will visit someday

yeah sure.
Guys, I'm looking to buy something sleek and powerful under $1000.
Looking at the HP Spectre x360 and Surface Pro 4.
Any insight, recommendations, etc?
