I know I'm still struggling, but this deal is too good to pass up. $450 off the X Elite model 12c CPU, OLED, 16gb ram and user replaceable 256gb SSD for $949 on Amazon:
Mentioned it to my son (who may need to replace his Surface Book 2 (unlike his old man, he's okay w/ NTrig).That said, I find the best option is just to have one of each (Mac/Windows) and switch back-and-forth as necessary (but my life/workflow is pretty much all public/online --- I just synch to Github/Gitbook or work with the files there --- I keep wondering if I could do a home server to the same effect....).
I understand that feeling - the thought of a real WinPad has me on edge as well. I would hate to jump into the MacBook (for the 90th time) to run away with the 11" Surface Pro again in a few weeks...

Nice find! The possibility of an 11" Surface Pro has put me in a wait and see situation. That and the weak Japanese Yen.
