Microsoft’s
original Surface Pro isn’t even a year old before it was superseded by
the Surface Pro 2. We have noticed the price reductions on the Surface
Pro before — including cuts following the Surface Pro 2 release,but Best
Buy is offering a massive discount of $400 on the original retail
price,
bringing the Surface Pro down to just $499.99. While the previous model
doesn’t have an adjustable kickstand and the improved battery life with
Intel’s Haswell chip, it’s still largely the same with slight
difference. You get a
10.6-inch 1920 x 1080p display with a Wacom digitizer and stylus, along
with 128GB of storage. Best Buy’s Surface Pro deal is only available
today and tomorrow online and in stores, and if Windows isn’t your thing
or too expensive
then there’s also $100 off all Apple MacBooks.

Surface Pen
The Surface Pro supports pressure-sensitive style and it also comes with its own Surface Pen that magnetically attaches to the power connector to hold it in place when you're on the go. Writing and sketching feels natural, and the pen works far more responsively better than a capacitive iPad.

Touch Cover, Type Cover,: Killer accessories, all included
Using a combination of Type and Touch covers. The $130 Type Cover has a keyboard with depressible keys, The $120 Touch Cover is a membrane keyboard. Both weighs about half a pound, and double as screen covers for the Surface. Working with the included touch pad gets the job done, but you can just as use the Surfaces touch screen or add a Bluetooth or U$B mouse or touc'h pad. I used the Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse that Microsoft included with this review unit. It's expensive but small enough, and it pairs nicely with the Surface.

The 10.6inches display is small, even especially for a full Windows laptop, but it's crisp and bright and has a full 1,920x1,080-pixel resolution HD. I found myself able to work on it easily, but I could also see that you did actually want to plug in a monitor for all day use. The good news is that the Surface Pro supports up to 2,560x1,440-pixel resolutionHD on an external display. Even if you didn't use another monitor, the Surface's IPS display is one of the best you can ever think of on a small Windows computer. Capacitive multitouch feels buttery smooth. That is the magic that made the I-products so much fun to use. The Surface Pro, in painting programs and a few other apps I tried, felt comfortable to navigate. It's not quite as brilliant as the iPad's Retina Display, but it feels like it's getting spiritually close.
You can connect the Surface to a larger monitor with ease. A built-in Mini DisplayPort carries audio and video, and with adapters (sold separately apart) you can switch over to VGA or HDMI if needed. Working in multimonitor mode operated exactly the same as you did expect on a Windows PC. It took some fiddling to get window sizing just right, but I found that working on my desk with the innocuou$ Surface on the side of my monitor as a PC $lash-second-screen was a bit of a treat.
Design: Boxy sexy-cool
Microsoft has done something awesomely right with the Surface Pro's overall design: it works exactly as advertised, displaying extremely elegant,bordering on beautiful, sense of design. The industrial magnesium chassis of the Surface Pro feels so solid but isn't too heavy to hold in one hand. One notable difference between it and the slightly thinner previous version of the Surface is a hairline wraparound vent on the rear that works with internal fans to keep the more powerful CPU running smoothly.
