So are desktop computers with touch screens suddenly tablets because
you can unplug the keyboard?

Well, I would say the Surface really is a tablet, since the
keyboard is detachable. That makes it more of a tablet that can
transform into an ultraportable laptop that can transform into a
desktop...

It sounds like you are settling on a very good choice. But
it’s not really an iPad or any kind or pad or tab, it’s more

Which is fine. I used to say an iPad isn’t a small computer,
it’s a big phone. I don’t think that has really changed.
What has changed is the average person is no longer interested
in having a computer, they want a smartphone, and/or a
handheld Netflix viewing device. But for actual computer
work, phones and tablets are pretty lame. Not sure where a
Chromebook fits.

All the ports you need
With two high-definition video ports, a gigabit Ethernet port,
four USB 3.0 ports, and an audio output, you have all the
connections you need. Transform your Surface into a desktop PC
by plugging in your Dock with the Surface Connect cable.

Dock to a nice large monitor, a normal sized keyboard and
mouse.
Be nice to drop it into a slot when I am at the office.

Dock to what? It's got a keyboard and stand built in.

My wife is busy (for months) planning some travel for
this fall. She told me I am not taking my laptop.
Too big, too heavy etc etc. (I actually left it on a
train at Heathrow once, had enough time to go catch
that same train and found it.)But I digress.
She says I can have an iPad. I acquiesce due to the
fact that she micro manages these trips and I don’t
have to do a thing. She likes it that way and I like
it that way. I just go where I am told to go and I
pay. She makes sure I have clean clothes and the
proper tickets needed for travel as well as hotel
rooms. It is actually pretty wonderful. She teams up
with my UK son-in-law as he is like this too.
But again, I digress.
I know almost zero about iPads. I need a human size
keyboard. Hopefully one with keys that physically
move. I would like to be able to plug in an HDMI
monitor too. Mouse?
Dear Borg, what are my options?
