In this video I give the Surface RT a little bit of a push and load up 10-15 applications all at the same time. I also investigate how the tablet manages all these applications in terms of displaying them to the user.

In this video I very briefly revisit a couple of gripes about applications from previous videos to say that things are improving. The first generation apps are starting to find their feet, but there is still a long way to go before parity with other tablet operating systems.

Here's another video where I vent (and rant) my frustrations over the lack of font size support on Windows RT apps. Three technology apps (you would think these would go **** for leather to make sure their apps were accessible) fail to produce a font size that matches the Surface RT screen size.

And I give some more love to the News Republic app team

In this video I, er, get fed up with the Surface over what is probably trivial thing.

I'd love to see a couple long term user reviews now that you guys have had them for a couple months of daily use.

hi, try the whitelist tool. theres a thread on this site with a link from where to download it from. run the tool and then it only requires a few clicks to complete the process. worked ok for me

I have tried the first version of that tool and it didn't work. I believe he has just updated though so I need to try again.

I don't think anyone can be considered a long term user just yet. I've had mine for a little over a month. It works fine. I've created a few docs in Word and Excel with no problem, I email with no problem, browse the web with almost no problems (do need to look into this whitelist thing more). So far, it has done everything I need it to. I hardly get on the desktop computer unless I'm just killing a few minutes.

Is there something specific you're looking for?

In this video I look at the grey area of when you're not quite sure whether something will work on the Surface RT or not and the difficult, clouded position the tablet puts itself in in the tablet market.

In this video I do something admittedly a little bit boring. I write my script for the video on the Surface RT to test out how quickly I can type. Enjoy... if you can

In this video I test how quickly emails are received by the native mail application on the Surface RT, and compare it to android devices.

In this video I chuck everything I can find at the Microsoft Surface RT's USB port. The results... are pretty good

In this video I show you that it's possible to zoom in and out of 'some' apps although it's not obvious to you if you don't know you can do it.

In this video I show you how you can increase the speed of your browser (a little bit) and protect your tablet from harmful websites at the same time using tracking protection lists.
