apparently its not great for the surface book 2 because it doesnt provide enough power so if connected to the book 2 its battery will drain the dock 2 is fully compatible with the book 2 so probably for all surface devices

I just got the 30" zt on the in store close out. Would've preferred 42" and the garden tractor, but beggars can't be choosers. Haven't mowed yet, as this is the northeast and I'd just mowed the day the close outs were happening. But I used it last weekend to haul logs uphill to the driveway, and it may well have not noticed the load.

No more portrait into landscape mode when opening. No more advantage in holding and using it. ...

When you get unique devices that work amazing they are so hard to give up against all the mainstream standard slabs.
