Thanks, Jeff. The box says “Surface” and “64GB” and “windows 8 pro” and model number 1514, which makes me think it is a Surface 1 Pro, if there is such a thing. I can’t find a model#/name cross-reference on the intartubes, my google-fu is weak today.
I wouldn’t want to watch movies on it. I have kids so I don’t have much opportunity or desire to watch movies alone, and we have a hacktacular home media center that would work far better for watching movies in company.
The Surface might be good for reading comics, though. Code Monkey Saves World is somewhat disappointing on the Nexus 7, but it’s not the fault of Coulton or Pak - it’s the fundamental inadequacy of a 7" screen for comic art exacerbated by the crappiness of the comixology android app.
