windows 8 Surface 12 years 2 weeks ago #50710

Has anyone had the chance to work with the new Surface from Windows.  Any reviews on how it works.  Can it work with HIP

HIP runs great on Windows 8 and Windows 8 Pro. It will not work on Windows 8 RT yet (neither will any other inspection software).

I think the full blow surface comes out in January. Asus has a 11.5 has a touchscreen laptop out for $550.00 running Win 8. The main disadvantage is the screen doesn't flip complete out of the way.

There's a few listed on newegg and amazon as 'not in stock.' I have a feeling they'll make it out before Christmas.

I know I shouldn't think this...and I know I'm not being fair...but "Surface" turned me off when Steven Sinofsky, head of Win 8, did his presentation 5 months before their release date...and his Surface RT froze up on stage. Those guys bugged me...lol
The few touch screens I tried worked pretty good with a Ipad touch stylus I took off the store self to experiment with.
