I usually used my company's notebook to settle all my computing needs including blogging but somehow lately they have tighten the security where I needed to sign in to my company's VPN (Virtual Private Network) in order even to surf the net. Thus, I don't feel too comfortable with this arrangement as I got a feeling I am being 'watch'. hahaha... Then, my pathetic netbook of 4 years has already given up on me although I tried to format it and reinstall Windows. It corrupted time and time again everytime I reinstalled it and also getting slower with some keys on the keyboard spoilt. OK, I decided to get a new notebook with a requirement of portability where I can carry it around. I shopped around for the past 1 month and ended up with a good offer from Sen Heng, though I gotta wait for almost 2 weeks for it to be shipped from KL. There's no stocks everywhere in Johor as checked by their staffs. I saved around S$300 on this baby as this seems to be the cheapest when i compared with prices from shops in Singapore and Malaysia.
And, let me introduce my new baby here - Surface Pro 3... :)

| Un-boxing ... here comes the tablet |

| The stylus - I have yet to try out the functions yet except for clicking |
 |
| Here's the tablet and the holder which mounted on it permanently. Its very sturdy! |

| After attaching the 'type cover' or keyboard. It looks like a notebook now. |

I still need to get used to it though this is a hybrid, where I can use as a tablet and a notebook. I love the hardware here especially the high resolution 12" screen but it will takes me time to get used to... err.. rather windows 8 Pro. I am still wating to upgrade to Windows 10.
Oh...btw, due to the excitement, I needed some comfort food to calm myself down ... hahaha ... and had a nice char kway teow as well as sharing egg tarts with my little princess.
Have a good week!

Haha you are finding yourself excuses to eat, wow it is a cool product however I prefer to use desktop as I seldom bring laptop out cos I find it troublesome
ReplyDeleteLibby - haha .. Always have to find excuse to read good food . I prefer desktop too as its bigger and I can see better but nowadays I usually go from one place to another.
DeleteHave a good week to you and me! Hee Hee
ReplyDeleteLibby - ;)
DeleteWah, your new baby looks so canggih.. Yeah, sometimes I feel I'm being "watched" too, but aiya, go with the flow.. I use my office desktop for blogging and banking (transfer) stuffs.. I'm eyeing on those 2 egg tarts.. I can have 10!
ReplyDeletePrincess - especially if you accidentally stumble on some illegal sites ... Haha
DeleteThe egg tarts looks good, where is it from?
ReplyDeleteSharon - Tea garden , Jb. I think you been there.
Deleteyeah, probably that is the reason your company is tightening up the security policy because the network guy caught you using too much bandwidth in blogging during office hours and not doing your work!!! muahahaha~~ xD
ReplyDeleteSk - lol... If like that no more fc for me in your blog .
DeleteI think it's a wise choice you get your own tablet+laptop so you actually separate your personal stuffs from your work laptop.. and I must say your new baby is awesomely handsome!!! it's a tablet and it's a laptop!! wow.. you can bring it out as a tablet and when at home you just attach the keyboard.. cool!!!
ReplyDeleteSk - it's till very much a notebook to me. Somehow I find it to be cluttered , windows applications and apps sitting together.
Deletejoker lah you, must have CKT and egg tarts to counter your overexcitement about your new gadget?? hehe.. BTW, I wonder did you take those shots using your new toy?? :p
ReplyDeleteSk - haha ... Excuse to eat unhealthy food ma
DeleteWah so canggih ar!
ReplyDeleteKen - It's been in the market for a while la... very much lighter than a typical notebook.
Deletewow, good for you as it's so handy.

ReplyDeleteWAH your new baby looks quite handsome! ;)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new baby. Enjoy your time with it :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the Surface Pro! =) It looks really... sporty and cool! You can even write on the screen with the given pen as well...
ReplyDeleteI'm still more comfortable with a notebook (or desktop, if I've urgent computer errands on campus) and an iPad since I grew up with it... but I definitely believe that the tablet would be easier - as it combines computer and an iPad into one. ^^
Phewit. ..new toy wor...how how?User friendly?
ReplyDeleteWow! Rich man plays a new toy now! This is definitely handy and I like that.
ReplyDeleteI am looking at the market now as my iPad a bit sot plug now.
