<br>
<br>
I've recently purchased a Microsoft Surface Go tablet and I'm
pretty excited about this. I specifically got this tablet so that
I don't have to sit at church with my laptop when I want to
capture information in my bible software (Ezra Project).
<br>
<br>
Generally I'm not a big fan of Windows, but I'm also pragmatic ...
<br>
I owned tablets before, but the big difference with this one is
that it's a PC running a standard Windows, which in turn means
that you can run any Windows PC software on it.

Install Debian or <a moz-do-not-send="true"

on it → Problem solved ;)<br>

with this device you get a compact (10 inch touch screen) mobile
device that runs existing PC-based software without any additional
porting efforts. And that's pretty exciting.
<br>
The Surface Go is not super-fast (1.6 Ghz Intel CPU), but
certainly good enough for bible software.
<br>
<br>
I wanted to share this info with you, since some of you may also
want to use existing bible software "on the go" - without porting
efforts to a new platform.
<br>
<br>
Best regards,
<br>
Tobias
