Surface Pro - A Hit! Part1

The Microsoft Surface Pro - A true hit for mobile professionals! - Part 1.

 
February 14, 2013 - I just purchased a 128GB Surface Pro at the Oakbrook Microsoft Store.  I know I am such a romantic.  This was one of those "gotta have it now" Tech things for me.  I tried to purchase on Friday, but was shot down like everyone else due to the limited stock available. 

I will be posting my findings here so all of you can read and benefit from the experience.  Other blogs are also having fun using the product and discovering the UNBELIEVABLE usefulness of this product over an iPad or other "consumer oriented" tablet.

Here is a great article from another person using it. http://zd.net/YkoyB3 Mathew Miller shares how great Surface Pro is for the busy mobile person!

There are so many great uses here!  The setup experience was flawless.  For those of you who haven't created your Microsoft Account (Windows Live) do it fast!  It is a great tool for synching all your computers, phones and tablets.  I logged in and everything came over immediately from my account. Including all stored WiFi access points! Talk about a time saver!

This is the first in a series of posts on the way Surface Pro changes the tablet/computer landscape.
