the best part about the surface is the screen size and resolution its tiny unreadable poo poo plus the combination of the awful imprecision of the awful trackpad and super tiny cursor is lollers and watching my coworkers struggle mightily using it while maintaining 'this is very good!' is hilarious

that's the thing, people don't want the surface, they want some of the features of the surface and not others it's a convergence device for a bunch of use cases that don't intersect and so it's bad at all of them just like windows 8

i think theres a pretty big difference between "a chinese supplier slipped some garbage onto the flash" and "not only did we intentionally put that there, but we will continue to try to sell you on it as we issue a non-apology about it"

im the article from 2006 talking about an issue that was quickly addressed being conflated with a history of total shuddering incompetence that is only remarkable in the sea of miserable failure that is the non-Apple world by how absolutely hamfisted the response has been combined with how heinous the problem was

A Yolo Wizard posted:aren't the signature devices the same price even if they were the same price or cheaper it wouldnt make any difference to my point which is that no one is ever going to look for a "quality" windows pc. just as no one travels across town to get the good white bread or the best 2% milk no one gives a gently caress which windows computer they buy so long as its cheap as gently caress and completely disposable it is unfathomable to the average person that one windows computer could possibly be better than any other to them theyre all garbage that if they must have they will expend the least amount of money and effort to obtain

Actually I believe the Signature devices are anywhere from $50 to $100 more expensive. I could be wrong, though.

lol yeah I just cross-checked and most are anywhere from $30 to $100 more expensive for the same model. So yeah, everyone should just format and reinstall whenever they receive a new Windows laptop. Except of course for the fact that the keys typically don't work on a non-vendor-supplied disc

I was just lookin at the cheapest of cheap laptops, the hp stream. identical pricing but i guess thats kinda a crucial selling point of the device soooooo (I have no belief that they'd be able to match whatever voodoo pricing / discount configuration dell or lenovo have conjured up for that week)Uncle at Nintendo posted:Except of course for the fact that the keys typically don't work on a non-vendor-supplied disc their downloadable one works completely fine with oem keys. They only got this right with 8.1 though (and for a while their recovery media options for that were hosed too) moron izzard fucked around with this message at 15:24 on Feb 23, 2015 |

Someone in the Security megathread said that it wouldn't work for them (something about it being "baked in"). He even used the ISO right from Microsoft's website.
