I can’t say that this is a 100% fix, but I’ve had 0 display driver crashes 
since installing this yesterday evening. Looking good at this stage.

Another option(s) are Lenovos - I really like the look of the Yoga pro 3 and 
the X1 Carbon. X1 carbon is in the 'black friday' sale they have as well..

On a bit of a tangent, I started a new job a couple of weeks ago and was given 
a Dell Inspiron 7000, with windows 10 installed.  It was randomly resetting, 
locking up or keys stopped working. I searched on the web for solutions and 
came up with graphic card drivers as the cause, it wasn't

Eventually I installed a personal copy of Norton on my work machine, it found 
20+ viruses non of which Defender had caught. Then I ran this script to clean 
up the image.

fsutil resource setautoreset true c:\&fsutil usn deletejournal /d /n 
c:&Dism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup&&sfc 
/scannow&Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth&sfc /scannow&Dism.exe 
/Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase&pause

After that it's been a joy to use.

Any updates on the surface book guys? Any deal breakers pop up? I'm probably 
going to put in an order today and break the bank so thought I'd check one last 
time just in case lol

In case anyone here hasn't heard yet and is interested the new Surface Book 
will apparently be available in Oz on Nov 12th. Looks to be expensive though

Microsoft are going to start offering Signature editions via their new stores 
in Aus (first one opening soon-ish in Sydney). They might offer the same online 
I guess, once the store opens.

Any things to look out for if I buy direct from US? I've always purchased 
locally

The Signature Editions are the exact same machines (HP, Lenovo, etc) BUT 
stripped bare of all the crapware.. From what I remember reading when Microsoft 
first started with them, it’s a clean windows install, with all the correct 
tweeks, drivers etc to get the most out of the hardware..

Here is a link to their US store:

This is where Microsoft could really make a difference, if they would stop 
thinking about just the US and make the Signature Edition laptops/PCs available 
in Australia…

Do they make them (or rebadge) ?  If the former, whose their manufacturer?

What’s peoples views on Lenovo ATM given there have been a few PR things happen 
in the last 12 months…? price v performance v reliability?

Are you talking about Superfish?

Consider how this could have happened and all the people who would have had to 
sign off on this. I'll let people make up their own minds about the competence 
and trustworthiness of Lenovo...
