Maybe u can sell it separately . Btw, let's discuss this in PM.

Anyone running windows 8.1 preview on their tablet?

I think not much ppl will risk that: From: http://www.zdnet.com/everything-you-need-t...faq-7000017849/

I suppose. But can always roll back. Hehe.

Yea, but it will a bit hassle to backup the OS first for a lazy ppl like me .

i will wait the official win8.1 released rather try the preview one..

Ditto for me....will wait

for pro users, the windows desktop is freaking too small to see. it's because the screen size is small but the resolution is high. to solve this, desktop size is scaled to 125% or 150%. but when attached to secondary display, the display when off because of the scaling..

yeaasss...... really sux.

win7 and win8 also support different resolution on multiple displays. the resolution got nothing to do, but the scaling itself. for example, the screen is scaled to 150%, but the resolution still remain 1920x1080.

from what i understand, windows 8.1 will have something like auto-scale. it will detect the display size and put the right size for each display attached.

hey guys wanna ask u guys are able to access password encrypted ext. hard drive on Surface RT? also what about playing files like .mkv, .avi? :/
Planning to get one since the price has gone down but these two are holding me back ><

hi anyone knows where i can trade in my notebook for a Windows Surface RT? needed something lighter.

thanks

Would be easier for you do it as separate transactions ie sell your notebook and buy an RT.

You can read BitLocker encrypted thumbdrives on Windows RT.

I'm not too sure about video players for MKV or AVI, your best bet is to recontain the file in MP4 as long as the codecs are supported by Windows RT, which aren't much just the usual H.264 and AAC type of things.

Here's a useful link for more info as pointed out by marauderz

TS, you may want to pin this Microsoft Surface Forum link to the first post.

Looks awesome from the forum, all discus about surface . Summoning TS Xirality .

Edit: The forum from the link looks like inactive, less threads and yet much not being replied at all.
Here's better, at least have some users giving feedback.

guys why i have strong feeling ipmart selling their RT without touch cover?

http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/Micr...php?prod=385651

haha if u read further down it says:


Package Contains :

Microsoft Window Surface RT (32GB, Black, Microsoft Warranty)
(Keyboard Dock not included)
Touch Pen
Charger
Manual Guide

DAMN I AM CHEATED! they are confusing ppl by stating


MICROSOFT SURFACE RT
BRIEF SUMMARY

Microsoft Window
Surface RT
32GB
Black
Keyboard Dock
Microsoft Warranty

And they are ready to deliver on monday. Im gonna stop this. =( feeling scammed.

Well, both RT and Pro doesn't bundle anything for u anyways.... The price that u c is the price for the tablet alone.... So most likely, need to ask and confirm with the retailer on the prices and the packages that they offer...

after play around rt at harvey norman, touch cover really suck. sometime u press also no respond or touch also no respond. But type cover feeling good as laptop keyboard. FYI type cover selling at rm409.

RT no so lightweight compare those nowadays tablet like ipad mini or ipad. But its really likely to replace laptop or netbook.
