What does everyone use their surface or 4 - for?

Mostly to serve pizza.

You must have gotten a SP3 by mistake. My new SP4 is cool as a cucumber - the SP3 it replaced could heat and serve your pizza...

I use mine primarily as a laptop as I do IT work. I only just got the machine last week and am enjoying it thus far. The SP4 dock arrives today, as well as a Dell P2715Q 4K monitor. ;-)

Thanks for Reposting, I Think It helps a lot of people make up the minds between all these devices out these days. See my Setup in the Photo attached.
Used as PC all the time, Just unplug it and take it to the job sites. View attachment 7670

I really like your setup! Can you please break it down for me? Thanks in advance.

Really? your SP3s used to heat up that badly?

I'm using my SP4 primarily for programming, running vm's (really pushes the resources on the SP4), mobile web enabled apps, etc. as I'm taking graduate courses for comp. science. Loving it so far!

Well, that is a bit of hyperbole - it would only rewarm your pizza. Seriously, if you didn't hibernate it, it would get very hot in your briefcase between office and home.

Hey Everyone, New to the site. I'm a 2nd gen Surface pro user. I use my Surface pro 4 as a Mobile Workstation , with a Surface dock that is hooked up to 2 24" dell monitors. and I do large architecture drawings and Onscreen Takeoff.

What do you do with your Surface pro 4

I use it for web surfing and Steam games: CS GO and DayZ. Works great for both. I have the 4GB i5 version.
