    This also suffers from Microsofts consistent issues where they just don’t try. They designed them and didn’t do anything with them, they barely iterated the product. I happen to have 2 because it’s cheap. This is also an issue with the surface tablets. They have a stylus that works really well in art programs, but it absolutely sucks when you want to actually be productive with documents as in writing and filling out forms and not marking up PDFs. Same with the windows phone and windows ce, no follow through at all.

      I wanted the surface line to be good… I wanted it so bad I’ve owned 4 of them.

        I was probably well into fanboy status with Windows Phone. I wanted that to succeed so badly I also owned 4 different devices.

    I have a Samsung Odyessy+ and it works…ok. I’m on Win 10 still, so should still work for a few more years I reckon. 90% of the time I just use BigSceen for movies. Not a huge loss for me, plus the thing is like 4 years old!

    Oh, that thing that could never entice me into clicking on it because it was forced down my throat with every windows installation is going away? Huzzah!
