Oh God... Now I don't know what to get...

 

[Reckoner]

This was one of the most fun and enjoyable conferences I've seen in a long time

Congrats Microsoft

 

[Stinkles]

MEGATON

Haha, I just megatonned so hard.


I was completely OK with the price already. But now it's like the no brainerest of all time.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Panos is the future of Microsoft, this guy is something else. Not only innovative but charismatic as fuck - he must be so inspiring at work.

 

[sixteen-bit]

i'm a little hyped about a laptop surface

 

[akileese]

Hmmm. I feel like Nadella is going to announce something.

 

[MarkusRJR]

It does the whole Yoga thing too. Such an awesome looking product.

 

[mentallyinept]

Best reveal since Sony's E3 Triple Dreammaker.

Best laptop reveal ever. Just ridiculous.

 

[Servbot24]

They did, you missed it. Was great.

Cool. I may pass on iPad Pro and get this pending reviews. This coming from a generally all Apple guy.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Does the sp4 pen also work with the book?

 

[AlexMogil]

haha Panos said SATYA YOU WAIT.

 

[Luigi87]

So SHUT THE FUCKING FRONT DOOR.

You can still make the surface book a tablet? Does it have a hinge kickstand like a normal surface pro 4?

I don't think so. What you do is take it off the keyboard, turn it backwards, then snap it back on, and use the keyboard as the stand.

 

[LucidMomentum]

BIG BOSS

I don't think so. What you do is take it off the keyboard, turn it backwards, then snap it back on, and use the keyboard as the stand.

Or turn the screen around and write on it like a tablet. Technically a kickstand.

 

[Pooya]

Maybe you can buy newer keyboards with better GPUs later, that would be decent way to accommodate upgrades. Still waiting to see what the GPU actually is.

 

[Sky Interloper]

Goddamn. I was waiting for the SP4 but now the Surface Book is impressive.
My poor wallet.

 

[LukasTaves]

I want a 950XL and a Surface Book. GIMME, let me buy you

 

[FullMetaltech]

Nadella doing great wprk so far. This definately a more foward thinking MS.

 

[UKUMI0]

Does the sp4 pen also work with the book?

The Book is an SP4....so yes.

 

[Luigiv]

Oh God... Now I don't know what to get...

No kidding.

 

[Ensirius]

This is the best technology conference since the introduction of the Original iPhone by Steve jobs.

 

[fuzzyset]

Nadella sounds like Ben Stein coming on after Panos. He should've ended the show.

 

[Frustrated_me]

Microsoft has announced a laptop that is a tablet that replaces your tablet that replaces your laptop. It’s a Surface laptop. It’s a laptop that’s a Surface. It’s a Surface Book. It’s insane.

This is the best technology conference since the introduction of the Original iPhone by Steve jobs.

I said the same thing a page before, yep agreed.

 

[NeOak]

Cool. I may pass on iPad Pro and get this pending reviews. This coming from a generally all Apple guy.

You'll be throwing money at the Microsoft Store website once you see it.

 

[plainr_]

This is probably the most I've ever been excited for a technology device.

The Surface Book is everything I ever wanted in a laptop/tablet hybrid.

 

[Bsigg12]

Does the sp4 pen also work with the book?

I would assume that's what those people were using in that video.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

fuck me im full into a the microsoft house now.

even the phones were impressive

 

[entremet]

Any good site with summaries?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

The Book is an SP4....so yes.

Shit yessssss

 

[Lucius86]

Microsoft got fed up with everyone else making rubbish PCs.

I absolutely don't know whether to get an SP4 or a SB now.

 

[Kibbles]

I tuned in real late but just caught that surface book thing. How much is that gonna be?

 

[LukasTaves]

Maybe you can buy newer keyboards with better GPUs later, that would be decent way to accommodate upgrades. Still waiting to see what the GPU actually is.

The gpu is in the tablet, the keyboard is battery only it seems.

I got the impression they said it's a custom designed gpu build in collaboration with NVidia and the xbox team.

 

[Futureman]

I need to know if when you draw slowly with the pen if it still make shaky lines.

I need to know pricing break down on SP4 and SB.

Then I preorder.

 

[Apath]

I tuned in real late but just caught that surface book thing. How much is that gonna be?

Starts at $1500.

 

[jokkir]

I tuned in real late but just caught that surface book thing. How much is that gonna be?

Starting $1499 USD

 

[Bsigg12]

Starts at $1499

 

[AzerPhire]

I really hope MS puts this kind of effort into the next Xbox. It could be insane.

 

[Mindwipe]

Wow. MS just absolutely nuked the iPad Pro from orbit. I hope Apple weren't expecting to sell things to enterprise customers, because if you're going to spend a crazy amount of money for the bosses you'll buy them this and they'll fucking love it. And the management tools will actually fucking work.

Insane. Also amazing that MS kept this quiet.

 

[yuraya]

This is probably the first time I've seen any true big innovation in the laptop realm . Pretty damn cool. Props to MS.

 

[MarkusRJR]

Man, this conference was actually better than this year's E3, lmao.

So awesome. Wish I had money to buy a Surface Book.

 

[Baron Doggystyle von Woof]

Gonna be a hard choice...

 

[Kuga]

I tuned in real late but just caught that surface book thing. How much is that gonna be?

Surface Book is $1,499+
Surface Pro 4 is $899+

 

[Andodalf]

Someone shop the Surface book onto this

 

[Ran rp]

WHERE WAS THIS MICROSOFT WITH THE XBOX ONE

:/

 

[Trey]

I tuned in real late but just caught that surface book thing. How much is that gonna be?

1499 with a 500 dollar rebate if you trade in your first born child.

 

[g0tm1lk]

Starts at $1500.

At least is the fastest laptop in the universe.

 

[Sky Interloper]

I tuned in real late but just caught that surface book thing. How much is that gonna be?

$1499

 

[Luigi87]

As awesome as the SPBook is, as a Canadian I expect the starting price no less than $1750 CAD, so... yeah...

I'm still likely getting a SP3, but SP4 is and SPB are very impressive.

 

[Sanjay]

Man, this conference was actually better than this year's E3, lmao.

So awesome. Wish I had money to buy a Surface Book.

So true.

 

[strata8]

The base is reversible!

 

[Interfectum]

An an Apple fan... Surface Book destroys iPad Pro. It's not even funny.

I love a cornered Microsoft. They go balls out.
