I am looking at getting a something new to replace my 6 year old latitude laptop with I currently use for all my labview development. My computer spends the majority of its time docked. I was looking at the surface pro 3 tablets from microsoft, they have i7 processors with 8 gig of ram and a 256 gig hard drive. I was wondering if anyone has actually installed this on a surface pro 3, or had any thoughts on how it would actually work? I'm not worried about the mouse etc as brought up in another post. It will spend the majority of its time docked and I can have an external mouse.
I just want to know if it will really drag and I will be better off geting a real laptop, or if the surface pro 3 would work as a development machine.
Thanks,
Eric.
