    I just got my Surface Pro 128 GB...My already retina Ipad collecting dust and my new Nexus 7 is like a cheep toy compared to this bad boy!

    You can do stuff that other tablets only dream about Wohow

    If you can afford one, Get it ASAP!

    I don't think so, as Microsoft locked up the bootloaders on all their mobile devices. Previous MS Surface users just managed to break the registry on the tablets, they didn't quite find a way yet to install other OS than the Win8 on it.

    They also might been Noobs

    It's possible to install Ubuntu, but I haven't tried it yet. But it seems like the Wi-fi has some problems ATM.

    I never said that this is not possible. I was just saying what I last read about these tablets on XDA forums. Maybe they even found a way to remove Windws and install whatever.

    So what is tablet offering better than the competitors, and why would you buy this instead of any competitors. I am asking this because I was interested in buying a Sony Vaio 10" Windows 8 tablet.

    Have all the functions of a laptop, but with a wacom/capcacitive touchscreen, not under 10". The current one I've got it's a 12" but it's getting old... So soon it would need replacing. 2.0Ghz CPU, 1.5GB ram, Windows 8 Pro, 12" wacom touchscreen, convertable.

    Dave, what was not to be understand. I want to run advanced applications like you would run on a laptop/pc not on a iOS or Android Tablet. I need it to run apps like Visual Studio 2012, Photoshop CS6, Sony Vegas PRO, Sony Sound Forge, Sony ACID and so on.

    On 1.5GB RAM with Win8? Good luck with that...
