for the windows 8 crappyness with the metro stuff, install classic shell, which is pretty much like windows 7 with start button and all, works pretty much like windows 7 now for me.
I think the problem lies with the operating system. Windows 8 is still too shitty to run a tablet and get actual work done. It feels like I always have to wrangle it to do what I want.
just ordered a surface pro 3, after my samsung slate fell down and the display shattered a few weeks back. i like sculpting on a tablet its a lot of fun, i hope the N-Trig stuff is good on it. And that zbrush runs well in Windows 8. If those work i'll be more than happy with that toy.
Its been a couple of days since i got my hands on a surface pro, Apart from the bullshit that is windows 8, i haven't been able to get art dock to work properly for me, which basically makes the tablet useless to me. @EtotheRic - Do you mind confirming something for me? In the applications i can get art dock to work on if…
I've played with them a lot but i only own a little vivotab note 8 that i have for sketching. I love that little thing so i'm planning on getting Surface pro 2/3.

The keyboard is ok for a tablet but terrible for a laptop. The keyboard is not physically attached to the monitor so you can't put it on…

I have a Surface Pro 2, which I got for the intention of doing 3d sketching. I think the biggest draw is the Zbrush just isn't optimized for tablets yet, or Photoshop for that matter. By optimized I mean touch friendly interfaces, larger buttons, marking menus for the pen, that sort of thing. After about 6 months with it,…
I picked up a Surface Pro 3 a couple months ago. There are a few minor things that bug me about it, but so far it's been a fucking magical experience. First, the stuff that bugs me:* There's a tiny bit of lag when using the stylus. However, this has the added benefit of smoothing out lines when painting in Photoshop.…
