Danijel Crncec I also think that the keyboard on the surface devices is fantastic, even on the keyboard cover for the Surface Pro. And yes I love their screens too. The reason why I personally prefer thinkpads is simply price/value. If I wouldn’t need a bit more “oomph” in my machine (doing graphics design as well) I’d consider an i5/8gb/256 GB surface machine — these specs would be plenty purely for writing! :)
