I had a Macbook work well for 6-7 years. My work laptop is a Microsoft Surface and it has been a workhorse for at least 4 years.

When I was deployed at sea about a decade ago we were conducting operations with a relatively new system that ran on a windows laptop. We had to stop the mission, surface, and call Microsoft support via satellite phone in order to get the system to work. Later, the new LCS class of ship was commissi

Yup. FedEx stole a Microsoft Surface Laptop Studio ($2.5K) delivery. Literally dropped an empty box that was hastily taped back closed on my doorstop. Best Buy refunded me, but not before I had to file a police report. Thankfully, I realized I didn't need that expensive a*s laptop anyway and went to

Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 Elite X (14 inch) beats the latest MacBook Pro (14 inch) in Geekbench score and has the same or better battery life. I guess 'performance' is subjective and you could still argue the MacBook comes out on top depending on what you prioritise. Either way, the gap isn't as bi

That's the magic of ARM. When MacBooks were still on Intel, they were some of the hottest laptops out there. Windows is trying really hard to catch up to that. Take a look at the Snapdragon X devices like the Microsoft Surface.

The redesigned tablet, featuring a fanless design and a repositioned stylus, combines the best of tablets and laptops. While some apps, like P

You don't need top talent to execute. Plenty of successful companies doing well and making good products with average engineers and a few 10xers dragging them along. Microsoft's issue is that they simply don't listen to what people want because they have the corporate/enterprise market locked in and

The worst are probably gonna be the Microsoft surface lineup. Yes it can run Linux, but good luck getting your camera, touchscreen, etc to work. It's like they purposely build it to not work well with Linux. You can get it to work, but it's not easy. The best would be anything with an amd gpu(or int

It's Microsoft. They consistently struggle, hardware and software, for devices smaller than a laptop. I have a Surface Pro. Really innovative device. They let the hardware stagnate for almost 5 years, doing minor CPU updates? Once they finally refreshed the hardware, they put the Qualcomm ARM chip t

Look, if you guys don't quit doing weird Mac Mini "laptop" experiments you're going to accidentally arrive at the Microsoft Surface Pro and like it.
