It's so easy to forget that the RT can do far more than a typical iOS or Android tablet. Here's my RT running 8.1 driving my 60" TV as a 2nd display (attached via an HDMI cable) in full 1080P resolution. I'm able to stream a live video on the TV while streaming another video on the RT's screen. Sean Ong showcased that in his epic video "Why I love my Surface RT" but I wanted to drop in a quick photo.

Yep I also love RT! It means we get no viruses too! My only issue is that the new printers at uni don't have an RT driver
 
I like being able to play videos (YouTube, Tekzilla, etc.) to my smart TV via DLNA. Using the Store app version of IE, when the video plays... charms, devices, select my TV and it shows up on the big screen. Great for when people are over and I want to share something I found.
