Microsoft - Surface Pro 2 - 256GB - Dark Titanium
Microsoft Surface Pro 2 Tablet: More capable than your average tablet but lighter and smaller than a laptop, the Surface Pro 2 features hands-on productivity with the ability to fully support Microsoft Office (sold separately). Multitask with side-by-side apps, prop up your tablet with the built-in kickstand, or connect accessories via the USB and display ports for a work-efficient desktop setup.
Well worth it if you have the money.

What's great about it: Beautiful screen, Love the stylus, Awesome build quality. 8gb of ram great
What's not so great: No thunderbolt, There is no place to put the pen when connected to charger.
I preordered the SP2 (Surface pro 2, 256 GB) almost a month before the release date (Oct 21st), It arrived on the 22nd. When I woke up today more than 2 weeks later, I was still giddy with (Christmas level) anticipation to use this product. I love this product!
I use SP2 at my desk with an external monitor and mouse for large graphics creation and editing; I sit on the couch and write web code and surf the web on it as a laptop; and I use SP2 lay in bed and watch YouTube and Netflix on it as a tablet.
When it comes to windows 8.1, I find myself wanting to use metro style apps more than legacy programs. Keep in mind that I have been using windows 8.0+ for almost 13 months (3700 hours), so I have definitely already acclimated to the “Modern” OS.
This product is... responsive touch screen, Good sound quality, easy to set up, lightning fast, Perfect for Business, Variety of apps available, A nice compact size, Sharp graphics, Easy to navigate, Comfortable to hold
About me... Budget Conscious, Technology guru, Business Professional, web designer / developer
I would recommend this to a friend!

How are 3rd party software packages installed?
With no optical drive, how are 3rd party software packages on disk, like my copy of Photoshop, installed?
My wife has an ultra book and I have the surface pro 2. We share an external optical drive for our DVD installations.
