i'm assuming it's for longevity for the design as well as mimicking a 'book'

I would guess they didn't want the keyboard to touch the screen when closed.

Also, provides a great angle when in drawing mode.

my desktop is :flabbynsick: for gaming but does its intended use masterfully so I don't won't to ruin it's integrity by swapping out cards and I need the functionality of a laptop i.e portability....if I can game on this better then current gen consoles :cheers:

Everything stated about the surface book is true. It is kind of expensive though :yeshrug:
downloading arkham city to see what this gfx card do...:whoo:will report back :sas1:
that thing cost too much for me. I probably would have got the Pro 4.

Isn't the Wii the only "Next Gen" console you own? Of course it will outperform that if you have the dedicated GPU model.

Well I played Batman AA at 2560X1600 at very high, phyx normal, no AA it looked smooth but I don't think that game has a FPS counter cuz I couldn't find it. I tried first at 3000X2000 but I could clearly see the frame rate dip with the same settings. I downloaded arkham city first but it kept crashing going to try again and see what happens....I think city has a fps counter from what I remember...:manny:

I got the pro 4 and Jesus I'll never user another tablet again. Being that u used it mainly for art, my programs running gives me about 8-9 hours of usage off charge.

Not gonna say it's perfect, but nothing fukking with it right now in anyway
