Best Microsoft Computers For Engineering

I have used several types of laptop computers, but Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is more than I expected :)

If you don't want to have a credit card saved with Microsoft, I think this is the easiest way to license Office on computers for personal use. B&H emailed me a digital code that I entered into my Microsoft account for a 12-month subscription. Done for another year.

I had known of Razer for a few years as a maker of gaming accessories and components in the PC market, but not as a computer manufacturer, and even if I did know they made computers, it was swamped out by being somewhat of a Microsoft Surface or Apple product snob. I read a few reviews of this product (Blade 14), and BestBuy had a them on display - my first impression was wow this thing looks really well made - something most gaming laptops are lacking, second impression is that it had less cheese factor than most gaming computers, and third impression was how well engineered and responsive it was. And the power in a 14 whose screen, touchpad, tolerances, fit, feel and finish were better than the Microsoft SurfaceBook and probably equal to a MacBook Pro. Yes, expensive, but it looked and felt worth it. I bought the Ryzen 9 RTX 3080 version and two weeks in I am impressed enough now to actually write a review - this is a great machine with no caveats in my mind, and worth what they are charging - the experience is reflected in the very professional and on-brand collateral materials, their web presence, etc. Razer is - surprise - a very top tier player, something I definitely didn't think of them as. Very happy with this purchase. The machine is powerful, smooth, refined, etc. as it should be and without any obvious compromises. If you want a top-tier computer, not just a gaming computer, this company belongs in your consideration set.

Best rack pullout monitor for camera engineering. The Datavideo one that costs twice the coin is terrible. It’s useless as a calibrated monitor and doesn’t have scopes built in like this one. The Lilliput also has the connections conveniently placed on the backplane, keeping wires out of the pulling mechanism.

German engineering...

I'm using this mouse on two different computers, Vista and W7 and works fantastic on both. this is the BEST trackball mouse I ever bought, no errors, compatible, no sticking or problems at all. Super mouse, thanks bunches.

So far, so good. Best part was that there was no “setup”. We easily found the printer on our computers using our WiFi. No downloading of drivers etc. Takes the pain out of setup.

I've been using two of these drives for transferring files from computers for years, very fast and very reliable! Best device I have ever found for large file transfers on USB 3 !

Great air flow and quality construction. Best for modern computers not needing built in CD/DVD.

Everyone was very impressed with the engineering behind this.
