Surface Go 2, Featuring Larger 10.5-inch Display and Thinner Bezels, To Launch Next Month (windowscentral.com) 8

Microsoft's Surface Go 2 is right around the corner. While nothing is set in stone, Windows Central reported Monday that the product could be announced sometime in May. From a report: Thanks to leaked benchmarks, which I've been able to confirm via my own sources, we already know everything about the CPU, RAM, and storage options inside the Surface Go 2. But what about any external hardware changes? According to sources familiar with the matter, I'm told that Surface Go 2 will feature a larger 10.5-inch display without increasing the overall size of the device. Its exterior chassis will be identical to the original Surface Go, including dimensions and placement of the ports. That means keyboards and accessories designed for the 2018 Surface Go will work just fine on the Surface Go 2 as well.

      I've had a number of tablets over the years, and while they seem to be good for reading books I thought the Surface was overpriced. My boss got one as a laptop alternative I and figured he'd soon be back to lugging the laptop to his innumerable meetings. I was wrong. Since it can be joined to Active Directory it kept the IT department happy, and for most of what he does it's more than adequate. For me it wouldn't work, but since he's the one stuck in meetings all the time (so that we don't have to go) i
