Q: Is this running i5 How many USB ports
A: It is running an M series processor which is not as powerful as the i5 but offers a longer battery life for the system as it consumes less power. There is one USB port on the system but you can always purchase a small USB hub for additional ports for cheap.
Q: Does this come with pen and keyboard/typecover? Do you honor student discount?
A: This particular unit has a keyboard included (which is what makes it a good deal). It does not have a pen - you have to buy it separately. There are no current student deals on the Surface at Best Buy (though that could change next week).
Q: What is the ram 4 gb or 8 gb
A: 4 gb. :(
Q: Does it come with the Microsoft word program and excel?
A: It comes with the limited app form of Office, which you can get free from the MS store with any pc. If you're a student you can log on and get the regular Office offerings for free.
A: I'm not sure, but keep in mind this is the 4 GB model and that is ridiculously low for Windows 10 and overpriced.
Q: Does it have any extra space to upgrade the 4gb of ram? Is it able to be opened up by an amateur?
A: You cannot add more memory. In addition to being extremely difficult to open, the memory is soldered onto the motherboard.
Q: An you use an external cd drive to download cds.
A: Yes, you can use an external CD drive.
Q: Can the black Friday deal be ordered online? Or do you have to go in person to a physical store.
A: I ordered it online and picked it up at the store
