Posting from my Pro 3! :)
Looking at the Surface laptop, just had a short 5 minutes hands on before dinner on Friday, it felt great.
What's your opinion on it?

Sans Windows 10S

Using it for 1 week now. Really like it. The build quality is mac standard. Battery life also good, can last whole day just doing general web surfing video watching

Got a incipio capture case instead of sleeve (just realize it's intended for pro 4), number lock, Mcafee 1 year antivirus, ear piece, usb hub and mouse. Not much use generally. No more hdmi cable.

is it possible to do a standalone refresh of windows 10 pro on it?

you will need to upgrade it the first time to get the win 10 pro license on your account. Subsequently, you should be able to just download the win 10 image and surface driver pack directly from Microsoft website

Got mine yesterday.. For surface pro, will just summarize:

All stores have same offer.. Free black type cover only.

Harvey normal at lvl 4 got a lot of freebies.. Including mini display to HDmi adaptor, 1tb external HDd (for i7 purchase), surface pro sleeve, and a few others. 10% off surface pen.

Best Denki is where I got mine.. Lvl 4 also. Free upgrade to alcantara type cover for i7 model purchase. 20% off surface pen. Comes with surface pro starter pack (exclusive to best denki). Contains sleeve, adaptors, cleaning kit.

Other wise, i7 prices no discount. I5 8gb 256 is $100 off I think.

Personally I would prefer surface as there are more programs support Windows as compare to Apple. Apple is more for those doing graphic design.

Just my 2 cents
