    Multi-chip module.
    It means the Intel Skylake they're using has 64MB EDRAM.

    Thanks. Was that unexpected? The EDRAM portion.

    It was hoped, but not certain in any way.
    The price for it will probably skyrocket though.

    starts at $900


    Another surface ?!?!?!

    A laptop surface ?!?!?!

    Bigger screen and the experience of typing on a laptop.

    What if we could do what we did for tablets for laptops

    And there it is the surface book with an NVidia chip in it

    That's not bad--less than the SP3 base price correct?. Hope the mid-tier isn't too much.

    I think its the same starting but you could get up to $150 off not long after the launch of the sp3 . I think a few friends got it for $750


    Surface book looks nice

    13.5 inch 267ppi 6m pixels
    Has pixel sense also


    curious what NVidia gpu this has , this could be a good gaming device.

    12 hour performance ,

    Surface "that-thing-Lenovo-has-been-doing-for-2-years" Book.

    They could call it Surface Yoga.


    EDIT: Fuck me, it's an actual tablet!

    sorry I keep updating some stuff that's interesting

    surface book 1,500

    Is he going to show something else ? he is talking about not being able to stop just a laptop what ?

    Surface 4 pro is about brining the thunder , this product the book was about reinventing.

    It's back in English now. When the dub comes in, you can still barely hear Panos, it's just that the dub is louder.

    boom it comes off the keyboard !

    Seems like the GeForce is in the keyboard so its just a core M when it comes out. NO usb on screen is a bummer for me.

    He handed it out to people and he wasn't supposed , a bunch of press is playing with it

    Yes , it was a wtf moment

    It looses the gpu when you take it out. But you can put it in backwards and have the keyboard flipped the other way so you can use it as a tablet with the gpu and the usb ports.

    nVidia's discrete GPU is in the base.

    I guess the keyboard connection is a Thunderbolt connection? Or maybe other PCI-Express custom connector?

    I wonder if future bases will take different GPUs.

    I'm a little confused. So is this a Surface Pro 4 combined with a GPU dock base...essentially?

    I don't think so

    Its thinner when just a tablet with no usb port on the screen. It also uses only a core M. I also don't think the type covers work on it.
