Not so bad

Windows RT was a bad idea.

The communication on Windows RT was even worse, as was the confusion with Windows 8.

Still, the Surface 3 was an outstanding tablet, which I've used daily until it died, and I never regretted its purchase..

For the money, it was a very interesting proposition, with Office for free - Office for iOS & Android would come years later), 1 year of Skype communication, an outstanding screen, USB, microsSD expansion, the only good stand in the industry, a great keyboard cover (extra $).

Would have I preferred to get a full Windows? Absolutely. At the time, I was hesitating to wait for a Dell 8 inch tablet.

Still, for a mostly email-internet-Office usage, with goodies like Netflix, Audible, and other decent Windows Store apps, and the occasional game for young children, it was a great tablet.
