Microsoft Surface - what a pile of junk!
 

Lets get some iPads on the MNF sidelines

What makes you say this?

I think they're pretty good. I7 packed in a tiny tablet with a full version of windows 10. Basically a real laptop replacement just like they say. (And unlike some competitors it actually has a usb port.)

its a power issue on the sidelines :2 cents::2 cents::2 cents:

I have a Surface Pro 3. Love it. It's a tablet that is a full laptop.

+1 for Microsoft Surface Pro 3 - love it!

That doesn't change the fact they are a pile of junk and a huge MS Fail.
Why aren't there IT professionals on site at every game? Double Fail!

MS paid $400M for exclusive rights to be the only sideline comp but constantly announcers and news reporters refer to them as iPads. Not only that they are no where near being profitable as each unit is sold at a loss. Triple Fail!

Update: NFL says server power issue, not tablet glitch, caused Microsoft Surface outage on Monday Night Football - GeekWire

Not true. They had to ditch the older surface 2's at a loss but they have started making money on surface 3.

The new Surface 4s are very power hungry.. The Surface 3s are still awesome though.

Love my surface pro 3

The two hour battery life on the tablet kind of killed the deal for me.

only two hours?

Surface Pro 4s have real bad battery life.. M$ dropped the ball on that one..

I didn't know so many people on GFY had the Surface Pro 3. If you have the Pro 3 keyboard, get the new Pro 4 keyboard. It's a world of difference.

I can easily go eight hours on the Surface without a problem.
