Title: Broke my surface
Post by: lilitalienboi16 on September 02, 2016, 07:02:57 PM
Dear all,

Today I dropped my surface on the floor at its corner. It shattered the corner and damaged the screen sufficiently enough to prevent use of touch. My pen is no longer registering and so my note taking abilities in class will be hampered. The screen seems to have taken the brunt of the damage. I am... frustrated, disappointed, and confused. There's a bit of anger mixed in. The device was 1300$ with a student discount.

Thankfully, the device still functions if I plug in the external keyboard which allows me to alteast access all my notes and study for tuesday's upcoming exam. Now I am not without computer either, I have a desktop and a school provided laptop (which I don't like using). But the surface pro 3 I just broke was very convenient in that it was the power of a desktop in the size of a tablet. I could turn it into a notebook for writing with its very responsive pen. The pen better be responsive, its 50$ haha...

Well it was either I complain on facebook or I complain here. You guys lucked out! ;)

Ok... back to my cave now.

Thanks Rhys. Ill have to buy a new one eventually, especially for rotation in third year but for now, God willing, the screen will continue to show me whats on the computer even if its cracked and won't respond to touch.

You're just that special anyway to get it here or there! :D

Sorry to hear about your surface damage. I'm old and never heard the term surface. Pen and paper guy.

Thanks Dean! Appreciate it.

Doug, if you want, google the Microsoft surface device. Its a really convenient tool for students but by no means necessary. Pen and paper works. I'm just very accustomed to the device and was using it the past two years now. All my notes and lectures are on it.
