So, I'm off on a journey, and I'd very much like you to join me. So, this isn't the first time I've attempted something like this, and have my past experiences to rely on and compare to. And, I only had one additional monitor at the time. It worked, but wasn't ideal, primarily due to the size and weight of TabletPC and WiFi technology wasn't as advanced as it is today. In the early 2000's I owned and used a Gateway TabletPC, which was an early convertible laptop, and I did very much the same as I'm professing to try now. And, the additional performance has me wondering if it can also be a 'tablet that can replace your desktop.' I've always considered that the proper direction of computing must follow the path of a single device that provides for everything – not just replacing a laptop, but replacing everything, and doing so adequately. It's bigger but lighter, and more powerful.

The Surface Pro 3, is heads above Microsoft's original foray into the tablet world. Or, probably more the case, they invested in whatever tablet of choice long ago, and are tied into whatever platform ecosystem. But, sadly, not everyone has figured out my little secret. After traveling with the Surface Pro for so long, this seems a bit ridiculous to me. Once work is done, they'll snap shut their laptop lid and then pull a separate tablet out of their bag to do other, possibly, more personal stuff. You'll see them with their legs propped up on their carry-on luggage to keep from hunkering uncomfortably over a laptop. I can work and play on the same device.Īnd, then there's the business professional. I have real work to do, which is why the Microsoft Surface is so valuable to me. Of course, they're watching movies, reading books, playing games, etc., which is different than my needs.

If you travel much, you can't sit at an airline gate without seeing iPads and Android tablets in almost every hand. But, so are many consumers, which is why my story is a bit different. I've been using the Surface Pro 3 for a long while now and am thoroughly impressed with the 'tablet that can replace your laptop.' To be honest and up front, though, I've not journeyed with a laptop since receiving the first generation Surface Pro, so I'm already used to all the conveniences of lightweight travel.
