I have some coworkers who were big fans of the earlier Surface pros say that
they have been disappointed with the newer ones because of the software bugs
you mentioned.  Their opinions are biased as they are fans of almost all
things Microsoft.  When i hear positive things about Microsoft products from
them i take it with a grain of salt, so to me it carries a lot of weight when
they say they are unhappy with the newer surface pros.

Personally, i have little experience with them, they strike a balance between
tablet and laptop that to me is not appealing.
