No deal breakers so far, still love it. Two things I have noticed after using it for a week now. The screen/lid when opened to its maximum angle is fine when sitting in front of it, but I have noticed a couple of times thinking it would be nice if it opened a tiny bit more. Mainly when using it at an odd angle, ie to the left of my desktop at work. The other odd thing is the feet seem slippery on the desk. Like a mouse slides. Might end up on the floor
Got another firmware update this morning. Three now since I got it, so hopefully more stability. Camera was blue screening but that's fixed now Cheers Stephen Ps also I've noticed I neglect my other computers now > On 25 Nov 2015, at 9:14 AM, Tom Rutter <[email protected]> wrote: > > Any updates on the surface book guys?
