Water Cooled Surface Pro

[Panda4915]

So the other night, I was out watching a movie with my girlfriend. I get back to my car to find that a thief had broken into my car and stolen my school backpack containing my Surface Pro tablet.

 

I alerted the police, and they recovered the backpack and tablet the next morning from behind the theater. It had down-poured the night before. The tablet was sitting in a puddle of water. I was disheartened when I heard that...

 

 

BUT IT STILL WORKED.

 

The thief threw the tablet apparently when he (or she) saw a password. The screen's glass is completely shattered. But the LCD panel is perfectly fine. Other than the glass, everything works perfectly. I was honestly amazed.

 

So basically... The surface pro is a complete beast and something you can take swimming with you. I am just amazed that it survived that whole ordeal. I still don't recommend buying a surface though.

 

I am well aware that it was not a good idea to turn the tablet on without attempting to dry it with rice or something first, but water had entered the lock button and it kept turning on by itself. And I can't pull the battery.

That's why you have passwords!

As a surface owner, I will now gladly throw mine into a puddle. Or not. I also wouldn't agree to recommend the pro 3, but it is a hell of a good machine. What surface did you have?

That bastard, what surface pro is that? 3rd gen/

2nd or 1st. The 3rd is bigger. And completely different looking.

Contact Surface support, they can fix it! (for a price)

Sorry to hear about what happened. 

But nice that it survived, hopefully someone from microsoft can replace it for you

Actually, that might work.

[Panda4915]

Oh I am so happy to be done with that device. It's the surface pro 1. It's actually my 4th one. The first 3 were replaced under warranty for oddly enough, the screen digitizer not working...

It's not worth my time. Microsoft Surface support is a joke... I've spent hours on the phone with them. I just went out and bought a MacBook Pro... I'm loving this 18 hour battery life....

It was, at least for a little while......

I was expecting something like IDK A WATERCOOLED SURFACE! 

I was expecting some amalgamation of the full room water cooling project and the Surface hitting eachother in the face creating some sort of monstrosity.

 

But all I got was a Surface smashed in a puddle.... 

[a_higby]

[ShadowCaptain]

all I have to say is

 

WOW
