Next generation in productivityMambo ViewPoint (May 31, 2015) on Gadgets 360After two weeks being the proud owner of this computer I can say that it is a next generation tool in productivity. Only the OneNote program for example already is shining, taking all my hand written notes during meetings, transforming it to text in well-organized files with all notes, pictures etc from all my projects. Although there are some remarks which go along with Windows and the fact that the idea of this computer is leaning on two thoughts, being a desktop and/or a tablet. This is causing sometimes confusion because applications have the normal office programs like for example Outlook which is not using the same files like the mail app. Also an attached second screen in the office is leading to searching on which screen the program or popup ended and searching how to start a new program. Also the app-store is really poor equipped, but if Windows 10 is doing what it is promising than this only a temporally problem. A docking station and an extra bigger screen for office use is recommended. Concluding a really recommendable solution which is not expensive if you take the enormous increased productivity in account.Is this review helpful?
