For what you get for the price versus a high end Android Tablet or an iPad I think I would still prefer the Surface. None of the are easy to do anything with. Although they are serviceable notebooks are a big PITA to work on too! -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Lawrence Sent: Friday, February 22, 2013 2:50 PM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: [dba-Tech] Repairing the Surface Pro Hi All: Here is an interesting article on the difficulties of repairing your Surface Pro. You wouldn't be taking it apart to add new memory, batteries, hard drives or even just cleaning out dust from the ventilation ports. How bad is it?...It is being compared to the Ultrabook which has been called the most unrepairable piece of equipment on the market. http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/cracking-open/difficult-to-repair-surface-p ro-built-more-like-an-ultrabook-than-a-tablet/938?tag=nl.e101&s_cid=e101&tta g=e101 This article might be well worth saving for those purchasing such a product.
