I’ve been extremely happy with my windows surface book, which I got over a decade ago, still use regularly, and I can even still develop on it without a huge headache. I think visual studio is the best ide I’ve used. Vscode has replaced pretty much every other basic text editing tool I use (windows based, at least). I’m not a big fan of windows adding more and and tracking shit to the os, but I can’t remember the last time ive had a bsod, and even then I was fighting with hardware problems.
They definitely have their crap and shit that drives me nuts, and like all the big companies they are trying to slurp up as much data as they can get, which is enough reason for many people to move away, but this idea that they “suck at everything” is just circle jerking.
I’m seriously shocked your surface is still running. I’ve never seen one last more than a year, and they usually required a lot of troubleshooting to keep them going that long.
Funny. I have a buddy who bought his around the same time as I did. I remember talking about it. I saw him a month or so ago and he was still using his. He’s got a ton of money (well paid, no kids) and in tech so I figured he would have at least upgraded, but he said there was no need.
Although I just looked it up and they have bad reliability ratings, which is surprising to me based on how good mine has been with decent usage.

Wow. You guys got lucky. All the users I supported with them had constant issues.
