Surface vs iPad

Now that I have both a Surface Pro, and a iPad (that work has lent me), I find that I like using the iPad more :(
People who know me, know that I love my Surface Pro, and that I would not spend any money on a iPad. but now that I have been using them both, the iPad is better.
Here is Why:
If I want to do work, the Surface Pro, it can do it all. however it’s just too small, I need a larger screen. Also, the keyboard (“type keyboard” ) is just a bit to small, and the  touch pad does not always work well.  Now I can’t do any work on an iPad, but in both cases, I will go to my desk top computer to do any real work. I was really hoping that Surface Pro would help me with this case. I just don’t find it comfortable to use. Unlike a notebook that I can’t sit it on my lap, I find that I have too put the Surface Pro on a table, or find a big book to put it under to use it well. Another thing is that  I can’t hold it in my hands conformably either way. The is not just the weight, it’s it’s configuration; its too wide one way, and too tall the other way (both the RT and PRO)
If I just want to use it to watch YouTube, or read something the iPad is perfect for that, you can use the iPad or the iPad mini, and they both feel good in my hands. I can use them anywhere in the house and be comfortable. This is not the case with the PRO.
There are a lot of problems with Windows 8, but not with iOS. But I will wait for MS to fix these problems, because it will take some time. 
The pen is the best part of the Surface PRO
I’m hoping that Microsoft comes out with a smaller Surface, that is not a wide screen format.  I will get that one when it is available. (I’m still a MS fan boy at hart). But Apple has a better product. :(

The Blue Screen of Death is Back!!!

OMG Windows Vista really sucks!!! I now hate it, and I’m the real windows lover. I was under the impression that Vista was the OS for games, and if you want to play games, you can move from XP to Vista with little worry. Well that is far from true, only new games work well with Vista. But it’s not just older games that have problems with vista, it’s just that vista sucks! Last night I was browsing the web, using tab browsing; looking at some YouTube videos; downloading some podcasts, and that was all. Doing all of this made my computer come to a halt. I could not believe that those tasks would kill this laptop, now I don’t have the best computer, but it’s not that bad.

I have a 2.13GHz Processor, and I know that is slow for today, but, Vista said it was good to go with that. oh well.

Now today I was trying to run Lineage II, and it was not working, so I tried to run the game as administrator, then it happened, THE BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!!! Well that is what I get for jumping into Vista.

Ok I’m going to wipe my computer and install Vista clean, and see if run into the same problems. If that does not work, I will go back to XP, and really start to look at getting a Mac, and I’m one of the few people that don’t like apple (long story, tell you about it some other time).
