Prunebutt,

Unfortunately, those don’t support a stylus. Although I love seeing a RISC-V tablet (although I wouldn’t be able to use it, since I’m not a kernel developer ;)

Prunebutt,

Sorry, that’s just not a helpful comment. It kind of ignores my usecase.

It’s a tablet and I’m not going to use it for big workloads.

If you know of any PCs with stylus support that I can carry in the pockets of my jacket with modular RAM, please do tell.

Prunebutt,

I have big pockets (in my jacket) ;)

The SSD thing you mentioned is quite a good point. :/

Prunebutt,

A shame that android/google and apple have the market cornered so much.

Prunebutt,

It wouldn’t have been my primary device, but it indeed sounds too expensive now.

Prunebutt,

Thanks for the hint. I guess I was a bit over-eager since I’ve been thinking about getting one for quite some time and now this “bargain” appeared out of nowhere. :/

Prunebutt,

Oof. Didn’t even think of the SSD bit. The surface devices are generally good quality but the repairability is apparently atrocious with all these soldered Chips.

Prunebutt,

Thanks for the tips. I guess it’s really a bad idea after all.

Here’s hoping that the pinetab will be in stock sometime in the future. :)

Prunebutt, (edited )

I was specifically hoping for something with the 10" form factor. I already have a thinkpad as a laptop and was hoping for something with a smaller form factor.

Prunebutt,

There is quite an active Linux on Surface community, so I figured that it’s a bit easier to get it running.

Prunebutt,

Thank you, but the other comments have dissuaded me from getting a 4GB device. ;)
