For a writer or researcher, I’d recommend OneNote. OneNote is amazing. Used multiple times to help research and convert byzantine CMS websites by keeping my pages & pages of notes organized within it. That alone would make me consider a Surface Pro even with its quirks. OneNote comes built-in I hear.
The only downside, and what’s kept me from jumping on board, is that I hear you can’t dual boot Linux on the machine. Or is that only the Surface RT? Until my bank account grows slightly fatter I won’t worry with the decision for awhile longer.
