    This thing can look at sexy as it wants, but its success will ultimately come down to how good the software is. While there probably will be some support for design software, at that price, not many people will buy => developers will not bother building good experiences for it

    MS is also making the same mistake here as the original surface. Trying to support desktop and touch on the same device. That will always be a compromise. This is why the the iPad is successful, it only does touch.

    • The iPad's successful because it brings idiot-level computery to the multi-masses.detritus
    • the way I see it, if they make this work amazingly with the Adobe Creative Cloud, then it's going to be a hitmonospaced
    • And how does it do that? By only solving one problem.inv
    • I suppose that's up to Adobe to adapt the Windows 10 install to take full advantage of the touch/draw/puck hardware of the Surface Studio. Could be a collab.monospaced
    • Using the puck to zoom in/out and pan, change brush size, switch layers etc. would be mint. If they do that, then i'm in.face_melter
    • Adobe suite already works great on Surface - they just have to do the puck bit.fadein11
    • if it only supports MS software noone will buy it obviously.fadein11
    • I have no doubt the Adobe Suit will work great, thinking more about other stuff.inv
    • To some degree this seems to compete with Adobe's Slide hardware.evilpeacock
