How much?!
I love MS. I've used their software throughout my career, and I own shares in the company. But seriously, MS, you're not Apple. You can't charge way over the odds for some faux hispter cool tax when Chromebooks cost half as much.
I'd love to buy one of these, but I'm not about to hand over twice what equivalent systems cost. Lets face it, the main thing I run that Chromebooks don't is Visual Studio, and that ain't gonna run well on the Surface 4GB version - not enough disk space for most of it.
