I'm well aware of the Surface issues, but that's what warranty and/or insurance is for.

There is a lot more to programming than typing and displaying text with 1D syntaxes. There are plenty of DSLs that go beyond that. I recommend you expand your horizon a little.

An external Wacom tablet is no substitute for a Surface Pro, where I can draw and write directly on the screen, while also being portable. Also, the screen size is fine, since I'm sitting closer to it, and you can always connect it to an external display.
