    I aleays wondered how this cloth material will wear out after years of use. Now I know. It looks like a homeless person.

      Thank you for saying this. I wanted to but thought it was too pedantic lol. But yeah, this is a surface go, I think, whereas Microsoft does actually make something called a “surface laptop” which is an actual laptop lol.

    How’s this funny, the Surface is effectively an iPad in size, no one else wants it in the MacBook Airs size.

      Wow I would totally enjoy having a 10" MacBook

      I totally think 11" macbooks were too big and the 10" is perfect

        A 10-11 inch MacBook would certainly be more popular than a 15 inch iPad, the thing is I don’t see them ever doing a sub $1k MacBook again, so I guess it’d be only $100 less than the 13 inch MacBook Air, if they ever brought one back.

    “Surface that bricked recently”

    From what I could see, it says “No Bootable Device”

    You could try re-imaging it, couldn’t you? You can still get use out of that surface if the SSD isn’t broken. try re-imaging lol

    Though it does look scuffed you *might* be able to clean it.
    Atleast try to use it if it still works fine enough. Or maybe clean it (if you can), put Windows (or Linux, I have no idea) on there and sell it. Someone might like it and you could get some money too

    I have a 16 and a 13 inch macbook. I find the 13 inch to be more convenient when traveling (I do landscape & wildlife photography). The 16 inch is nice to use when at home on the couch or not at a desk.
