I'm really not missing the point, just disagreeing with you. I doubt you do any heavy lifting on a PC, no 1080P video, no huge multi track music with lots of VSTs etc. For YOUR use I am sure it is perfect.

If I am going away and need to work, I take the MacBook. It's light anyway. If I am going away and not working, I take the iPad. I'd not take both. Both have different jobs. Because you don't *do* any heavy lifting, the hybrid thing works for you and that's great. I was just taking the piss because the surface is one of the biggest flops in MS's history.
You are completely missing the point. You take a tablet OR a laptop when you travel while I take both in a device that fits in my pocket. As for heavy lifting it handles photo editing in PS without missing a beat. I don't do video editing, but the Surface is more powerful than the smallest Macbook air (which is both bigger and more expensive).
