I got a Surface 11 earlier this year. Now, it's not the most powerful computer on Earth that can run Crysis 3 at 8K 240 fps but it's strong enough for me to program Python in VSCode, watch 4k movies from my JellyFin server, read books from my BookShelf instance, and play games like Guns of Fury, Ikaruga and PacMan: Championship Edition DX+.

I have owned a surface for years. I love mine. I use it mostly for office related tasks and as a service technician with manufacturer specific software. Nothing to demanding. We recently started getting everyone at work them and my wife uses one at work as well for similar tasks.
At this point I feel like Microsoft should pay me with all of the surfaces I have sold for them after giving reviews. Haha.

I like the snapdragon X, but I'd just mention on the reddit link that you posted it is using an X elite.......and the ebay listing is for an X plus (which has half the TFLOPS of the highest elite, although I guess there are some crossover on the most powerful plus with the lowest tiers elites). Just an FYI if gaming is something one is considering for this bit of kit.

The Elite and Plus have identical TFLOPS.

Objectively a good deal for a computer with an almost 3K screen. Not great for gaming but can handle almost everything else that 99% of people need a computer for. Good luck finding a screen this good under $800 bucks. Let me know if you do! Usually under $1000 laptops have junk 1080p screens.

And going by this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Surface/...hink_a_86/
It can run the entire BioShock series and even Black Mesa.
I don't know why anyone would call it junk.
