    I’ve quickly learned that Microsoft’s own hardware is the absolute worst at running it’s own software. Well shit maybe not HP but it’s pretty bad.

        It’s likely a difference of bloatware for HP. For Surface. I really don’t understand how they could have made it any harder for someone to work on their products when they have issues.

      How so? I’ve owned a Surface Pro 4, 7 and 8 and a Laptop 4 and they’ve been rock solid for me.
