    Thinking of replacing my old laptop with Surface Pro 5 (newest one) .. Any opinions on using Surface Pro with Vegas? Not thinking of editing as a tablet but with keyboard and mouse like a laptop.

    Good to see yah here again!

    Well, I’ve not used the M$ Surface but I’ve now been using the A$$LE IPad Air2 for nearly two years, and, coming from PC-land, I was never going to have anything other than my iPhone (still iPhone 4), I’ve been stunned and somewhat convinced of the ease and subtlety of the device. Often I’d do photo and other graphics work, make and edit small range movies on it as well as all this communications Forum work plus a multiplicity of other work. I can take this and all my work to show clients.

    Paul, all I’m saying is just think on. There’s another way!

    Well .. I suppose I’d be able to use it as a tablet too as Vegas can handle that .. but I’m an old guy and change comes hard upon us old guys. This is not to say I’d want to go back to glue splices and gang syncs ..

    From everything I’ve heard, the Surface Pro is the way forward for lightweight traveling machines. It has a USB port and everything !
