The Surface Pro 3 looks amazing, and if it had come with 16GBs of RAM I’d have totally gone for it instead of my crappy Lenovo that recently bit it (running 3 instances of Unity and Visual Studio tends to eat a LOT of RAM).

Yeah, not a fan of the touch cover, but the type covers are actually okay, even if the key travel is super shallow (I much prefer full mechanical keyboards).

It’s neat having a portable computer in tablet form that I can take with me, and when I want to hook it up to better monitors/input devices I can. That being said, yeah, might be great for the business person on the go, less great for someone who’s computer generally just sits on a desk.

And the old Surface RTs are garbage. I have one, never use it. There’s a reason MS discontinued the ARM “tablet”.

I found it to work way better on a touch device that supports multitouch. Way easier to do trills with two hands alternating rather than clicking madly like you’re playing Diablo III: The Musical.

Also, if you’re really fancy, can put the touch device down and “play” it similarly to a piano to really get the rhythm down.

But for all those Surface Pro users (all 2 of them!), it might be worth a try!

You are right (and are probably more knowledgeable about this topic than me anyway!), it’s probably more a toy than a game. I had forgotten about the difference between the terms.
