Bruh I literally just went to make some coffee, came back, and found my laptop screen tinted green and split into two halves!

Windows 11 on my Surface Laptop 3 (a Microsoft-branded laptop lmao) did the same thing. Turned green and did some wacky nonsense. Thought my computer was dead. Needless to say, been running linux since 2021, never once have I had issues, never looked back. All I can say I'm sorry you're not having a

New Surface Prices No Longer Competitive

No, I didn't miss it, smart ass. I CAN'T use the consumer version with my software - which relies on Intel processors. The SL8 Intel is NOT competitive. Period. I prefer Surface Laptops. I've always had to purchase versions of Surface Laptops with Intel processors for legacy support. I can't use Mac

Microsoft unveils Surface Laptop 8 and Surface Pro 12 with Intel Core Ultra 3 chips for business

They are not. We bought Surface Laptop 3's for Business with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage for $1299 back in 2019. Even accounting for inflation, that price is ~$1699 in today's dollars. And there's still another $250 slapped on top because Microsoft couldn't be bothered to negotiate long-term NAND and

Microsoft reveals major price increases for all Surface PCs as RAM crisis continues

Same, i guess My Surface Laptop 3 needs to squeeze out an extra year or two longer until Microsoft figures it out lol. But the Samsung Galaxy Book 6 ultra is looking like a better option anyway.

Is linux actually getting more attention?

I was using Paint on Windows 11 when I saw Copilot was integrated and nearly puked. I gave up Microsoft 365 (I really used it for OneDrive) because I’m trying to cut out US businesses, so giving up the OS was the next logical step. So far it’s been painless and my Surface Laptop 3 is so fucking snap

What made you switch to Linux?

There is a local nonprofit in my town that takes old computers and puts the latest versions of operating systems and sells them for low-income people: Chromebook ($50), Linux ($100) and Windows ($150). I chose the Linux last year because I don't like Windows and Chromebooks are too limiting. Plus Li

Horrible experience with Surface Laptop 7 - About to give up

Looks like I'll be going down that path. I really did love my Surface Laptop 3. My gaming desktop is a Windows machine so I'm dreading switching between Apple and Microsoft daily. For my daily tablet use (watching youtube/streaming while lounging) I've always used an iPad so I'm hoping MacOS isn't t

Any thoughts on what to do with a Microsoft Surface laptop with a bloated battery?

If it's older than the Surface Laptop 3 then it didn't even have screws holding it down. The Laptop 1 and 2 both got 0/10 repairability. Also Microsoft advises against replacing the battery, you have to take the motherboard out first and the battery is adhered to the bottom case!

Windows users, what made you switch to a Mac??

Ecosystem. iPhone, iPad Pro, Apple Watch Ultra and AirPods Pro 3. You can cross pollinate iCloud pretty well to Windows finally, but it’s just not the same. Got Surface Laptop 3 with i7 at home during pandemic. Play Minecraft with kid and the heat and fan were crazy. He has same thing with i5 and it
