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,

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,

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

Prunebutt,

I have big pockets (in my jacket) ;)

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

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,

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

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. ;)
