@J_aa_p I really like my #surface pro, because I travel a lot and am 6'5" (196cm), so a laptop isn't useful. The Surface is a dev level device that is also good for entertainment and other stuff.
a new article on 9to5Mac comparing the iPad Pro with the upcoming Surface Pro. unfortunately it also conveniently ignores the fact that one is effectively running a super limited phone OS while the other a fully flexible desktop OS.
I hope that this will finally force Apple to allow iPad Pros to run macOS (even virtualized) as all that awesome power is just getting wasted.
I'm looking to replace my family's laptop used mostly for web browsing, word processing, and making sure my cross platform apps work. I have a Framework Laptop 16 AMD Ryzen in pre-order which is supposed to ship next month.
Would a Surface Pro 9 or a Thinkpad X13s be a good choice for this use case?
I realized that I haven’t showed you all of my black hole doodles yet! This is probably the most recent one. I can tell because the shading makes the holes look more convincing, and that took me a lot of practice to figure out how to do that. Can you find the waterbear?

Question for the #Linux crowd. Does anyone know of a distribution which would work on a Microshaft Surface Pro 7? Now that MS has infected my tablet with uninstallable Copilot, I would like to return their favor and uninstall Windows. Any help is appreciated!
Looking for new #laptop to replace my #Surface Pro 6. I'm overwhelmed by the number of choices and annoyed so many devices have removed basic ports 😠
Trying to decide between the Surface Laptop 5 and Dell #XPS 13. I've seen the Surface in person and like it but reviews are poor. I've not seen the Dell but reviews are fantastic but it has few ports and apparently some quality control issues. Any thoughts? Advice? Alternatives? Thanks!
Anyone got a #surface third-party slim pen? I have an official one but my kittens are very hungry for it, literally.
Thinking of getting a cheap one to leave attached to my Surface Laptop Studio, and keep the Real Deal in a drawer for when I need it. Silly but...man, that thing was expensive =/

Seriously considering moving back from the Surface Laptop Go 2 to the Surface Go 3.
I made the switch in the first place because while I love the flexibility/modularity/all-in-one-ness of the Go, in 2022 I found myself using it in my lap a LOT, and (like the Surface Pro), the Go is NOT lap-able. The Laptop Go, on the other hand, is (as its name implies) a traditional laptop.
Alright, we got some nice updates to the Universal Blue images for Microsoft Surface devices!
This morning we landed kernel modules ootb so you don't need to config them yourself. Switched off of TLP as recommended by upstream, and fixed some screen scaling factor issues.
We're now discussing what image/desktop variation should be on what form factor:
