    I only use laptops and have three of them--all working! I am a computer consultant teaching the Microsoft Office Suites. I bought the Surfact RT because 2013 was installed. I find it difficult to attach the power chord to the Surface. If I do not check, I can be charging for several hours and then realize that it is not connected properly. Also, if I am working while charging, the chord can just pop off. This needs to be corrected.

    Good tablet for students and people who don't need the fastest speeds. It does hesitate a bit at times but still does a lot for the price.

    Gift for my 9 year old daughter who does most of her homework on the computer. This tablet allows her to use Microsoft Office for those functions & also download games & apps to allow her to have a lot of fun on it.

    I've spent well over a year trying to decide whether to buy a second home computer, laptop or tablet. When I saw Windows Surface advertised, I was excited. After going to Best Buy and looking at Windows Surface RT, I knew that this product was a good solution to my dilemma. Overall, I've been pleased with the product. As there were no operating instructions, I still do not how to proficiently navigate the Surface, which is frustrating as I am only moderately computer literate. Generally speaking, I am pleased with the Surface.

    My wife loves the new Surface - was a nice Christmas gift. The Surface is easy to use and light weight. The only draw back is the amount of updates it always has.

    Great machine that is more compatible then an Apple product with everything that most people are used to. Exactly like a small laptop, with the perks of a tablet.

    I bought this on Black Thursday. It was considerably cheaper that way. The performance is decent. It is really nice as a portable tablet.

    For my purpose, the Surface has been great. I needed something that did email, basic MS office and a few apps to keep me entertained while traveling. This tablet can't do that millions of apps a Ipad can but it does MS word beautifully. It is like having a laptop but with tablet portability and ease. My one other complaint is the sound. It is not as good as other tablets for watching movies. It has been very good for me.
