Windows S can be converted to regular Windows with a simple official MS store download. Takes 5 mins and no effort.

This is significantly cheaper than employee pricing for the Go 2, this is a VERY good deal. My Go 1 has been all over the world with me, for international trips it weighs very little and takes up almost no room in my backpack.

Just wondering why the price drop - are they looking at a Go 3 any time soon?
Really comes down to your use case. If you're using more PC oriented applications, this works best and you can always use Chrome for some apps within the browser. So, is this more of a light travel work computer or more a consumption device? The Surface for the former and the Tab on the latter.

I've ran Photoshop and Premiere on the M3 Surface and seems run well enough to be functional for lightwork. Although I'm very much a fan of the Surface, there are fewer reasons to stay PC these days with all the apps out there, but I still rather not be provide Google with even more personal data than I have to which rules out Android OS for me.
A Windows Laptop + m1 iPad Pro is SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than buying a hybrid Windows tablet like this though. In fact, you could get a budget 8th gen iPad and Windows hybrid tablet for far less than this, even,

Anyone have any idea how long this will be good for? Still debating getting the M3 model or the cheapest model. Since I only want it for DJ software (Mixxx) which allegedly has Very Minimum Specs (2GHz processor, 1GB RAM) and I almost never use my laptop or my Android or Win8 tablets it's probably a waste to buy the M3 model, on the other hand I'd be interested to see how it works as an art tablet with Fire Alpaca and Clip Studio.

Also the DJ controller (Pioneer DDJ-400) is powered off the USB and while I'm not planning on using it without a power cord, I suspect it would drain the battery like a vampire if I needed to.
Probably until the 24th or until they run out of units should a go 3 be announced at the Microsoft event.

Should be enough out there to see what the Pentium models can do, which is quite a lot. You can look at go 1 videos since those are similar in performance to the go 2 Pentium models.

2d drawing wouldn't need more than 4gb unless system requirements dictate.

Well, it can run 13 hours playing videos, dj controller ought to run a few without issues...

I AM GETTING the $279+ sales still here today'6/18 !!

Lg g7 phone, Chrome browser, SEARCH ENGINE set to Bing.

Search " go 2 surface", find the link to the go 2 product page.
There is often 2 sections , the top couple of links that have an "ad" icon next to them, then the real links starting after those ad links, usually under the videos results. Click on the Go 2 link - should be the first "real" search result.

It says "have a special offer for you" in yellow, box to click in blue to configure.

I do clear cookies often, so it isn't tied to some special cookie or link.

I guess the price for the type cover randomizes too? Good price for the tablet, but $85 for black cover, $110 for others.
Keyboard cover is $69 on Amazon, and it was $50 the second day of this deal, it is often on sale, I wouldn't pay $85 for it...

These instructions are helpful. I was able to create a working link using a new private window (Firefox) if someone still needs a working link. I'm not sure if this machine will fit my needs, but we have the 60-day return policy to try it out. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d...t3s2vjmdr6 $440.99 for the M3, 8GB, 128GB and $84.99 to $110.49 for the type cover.

The sale is officially over. The incognito trick doesn't work anymore, but the following links still work at the time of this posting. I expect them to be disabled any time now, so this is the last chance to get in on this for anyone stumbling into this thread.

Decided to wait and see if base Pentium model goes clearance under $200 for backup DJ software. While an m3 and type cover with pen would have been a good deal I think I would have ended up hating the keyboard and not using it.

How slow is the base model in real world use?
