3DS Max? Great, that'll be something to tell people who keep saying the Surface Pro is underpowered for any real work.

For me, the Surface Pro is my main system where all my code is written and designed. I like the small 10" size which allows me to take it almost everywhere and get my work done, such as sitting in the school canteen while waiting for my son to finish his Saturday activities.

And when I get in the office, I plug it into a USB hub, and it becomes the center piece of my... 'command center' tongue.gif

I recommend you spend RM1899 for the 128gb version, and yes the accessories are grossly overpriced.

Why would there be any lagging if you just installed the programs? You try running all of them at the same time and switch around all over the place, then maybe it might lag a bit while it's doing disk swapping. But that'd be the same case for any 4GB notebook considering you're talking about PS and AI here.

I've been looking around for a smallish but powerful notebook with tablet features for convenience. The Surface Pro fits the bill but cannot be found anywhere at the RM 1899 price.

Current US prices for Surface Pro 2 with 128GB SSD and 4GB memory is USD 999 (RM 3,270) and Surface Pro 2 with 256GB SSD and 8GB memory is USD 1299 (RM 4,250). Thinking of asking somebody to buy and hand carry it for me.

Worth the price for the specs and features? Would appreciate some feedback. I'm a little rusty with current available notebook specs and their prices and what's available out there. Thanks.

Specs and features wise, you can get a similar windows ultrabook at a lower price. One of the main reasons for buying a Surface Pro is wheter or not you prefer the small, lightweight, 10" form factor.

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I thought the small form factor and weight is quite difficult to find in other ultrabooks and those are the features I'm attracted too.
