aptops and tablets play a major role in the job
we do today, they are a means of communicating with home and a place to order kit. If
like me you have gone through a few laptops
in your time working away, you must be sick
and tired by all the new models that come out
on a regular basis.
Out now is the new Microsoft Surface
Pro 3 which combines a tablet and a Windows
laptop. We have had one for a few weeks now
and all I can say is its very impressive.
Until now a tablet has been very limited and you have
not been able to do what you to with a normal laptop. Until
the MS Pro 3. It’s a 12 inch tablet which, when combined
with a keyboard, turns in to a fully functioning laptop. The
tablet itself does not come with a keyboard and we would
recommend the Microsoft keyboard that’s made for the
Surface. It’s a bit pricey but worth it and works very well.
On the tablet you will find a USB 3 port and a Micro
SD card slot; not the world’s gratest amount of ports but it
just about does for what you will need when working away.
Starting up the machine (either in tablet form or laptop) it boots really fast with the 8 GB of RAM onboard
and Windows 8.1, then you are into normal Windows like
before. With a built in webcam and headphone socket it
makes for an all-round machine… Just what we have been
waiting for!
It comes with Microsoft Office already installed so
there is no need to buy and that’s a plus. Prices are still a
bit steep but they should come down in time, like every
new laptop that comes out. We don’t think you will go
wrong with this little work horse.
