Apple is building the computer of the future, and I’m buying the Surface Laptop Go of the past
6 years ago we bought 11” MacBook airs for our nurses to carry with them as they work. They have worked great...but are beginning to show their age. Apple is making amazing 13” M1 MacBook airs, but I just bought a surface laptop pro to see if it will work. It can run our 30 year old office management software which the Macs never could. Some of our doctor use surface laptops and pros so we have surface chargers in each room. The nurses want something small. It all makes sense to get the surface laptop Go. But it breaks my heart to not be getting the computer that I know will running the ARM processor that I know will be the future.

I think the duo and neo are a mistake
I think it is a mistake to have two devices that look identical just are different sizes - from the same company - that run different operating systems. I think it will be confusing for customers - who are used to buying laptops, phones, tablets, TVs and being able to choice the size and everything else is the same - that one runs android apps and can act like a phone. But the other runs windows apps. And the names. I can never keep straight which is neo and which is duo. Shouldn’t they both but duo as they both have two screens. Duo and Duo max/plus? The value of two screens with a bezel between them aside. (Couldn’t I basically do that now if I wanted to by carrying two smart phones in my pocket. Same thickness in my pocket. Unlike folding phones - you can’t use the whole screen for a bigger experience gaming or video.) they should have decided windows or android and done both with that.

Does the surface pen seems a little cheap and plastic?
We have surface pro 7 and the old and new iPad pros at work. I love using the pen. I use a program where there is a little or clicking and having the pen really helps. But compared to the apple pencils the surface pen seems super cheap. It doesn’t feel solid. The tip is different from the pen itself. And the tip is black, but within a few minutes the black tip wears off so the very tip is grey (as I look at pictures on line, maybe the tip is supposed to be grey). But as you touch the tip it kind of rattles. I don’t have a surface slim pen, it might feel better.

Going all in with surface connect - am I crazy?
We are a medical office and now have a USB plug in in every room. The device is large and a pain to carry. We already have some surfaces so tried the Microsoft surface dock. And it worked great. Changed, plugged in the USB device that could just sit in the desk in each room, and TEAMs attaches and reattached seamlessly. Brilliant. My only worry in 2019 is going all in on surface connect crazy? Does anyone have any inside knowledge or guesses if Microsoft is going to get rid of the surface connect and replace it width USB-C (which the surfaces we own don’t have so I didn’t try an USB C dock).. Microsoft swears they are going to keep it, but when even apple is going USB C it seems crazy to buy 9 surface connect ports and design our work flow around it. Is it crazy?

Apple just gave the most amazing boost for Edge
“Apple recommends using the Microsoft Edge browser on a PC running Windows 10.“ from ZDnet. That is the most support for Edge outside of Microsoft itself.
