Thinking of grabbing Costco $750 Surface Copilot+ laptop — good for everyday personal use?

My two cents. Don't buy into the windows arm ecosystem yet. Part of the reason that computer is so cheap (just a guess) other than it being Costco, is because of the pain of using windows' translation layer. A lot of folks have been leaning away from them since they came out a little bit ago. Qualco

Apple's $599 MacBook Neo Sold Out Through April 2026 Amid Surging Demand

Maybe it’s me but I can’t seem to find a surface laptop that starts at $800, arm or not. The cheapest machine on the Microsoft website is the Surface Pro, which starts at $1,050 without a keyboard or power supply. For the keyboard and power supply (the neo comes with both) it’s at $1270, more than d

Is it feasible to buy a laptop and get 8 hours of battery life while typing documents?

I installed Termux so I can run Linux on it and I even run IntelliJ Idea on it and code Java applications. I also have a Microsoft Surface laptop 7 with a 268v and

Windows Wrap: Snapdragon X PCs are the latest victims of lazy takes and willfully ignorant tech journalists

I have a snapdragon x elite (surface laptop 7) and it's definitely overhyped, they are great arm devices with great battery life, they run hot when you really need to use them, compared to macbooks that run cool/silent/fanless Snapdragon is a huge improvement but still miles apart from apple silicon

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

Yikes man. At current prices, other laptops are looking like a better deal. I really like the surface line because their devices were quite innovative, despite being far from the most powerful Specs. I feel that innovation is somewhat dying out within the surface line of PCs. The Microsoft Laptop is

Engineering student recs

I had a surface laptop first gen that needed a battery replacement. When researching online battery issues seem to be a common issue for the surface laptop no matter the generation. The design of the laptop makes it hard to replace battery yourself, and often times, for older generations, Microsoft
