That's $70/month for 2014 hardware (dual core no ssd), or $120 if you need a quad core or ssd. Prices for the new hardware haven't yet been announced.
Either way, if they keep their same pricing, there's a 12 month break even of buying your own hardware if you don't need to be on a data center backbone.
I agree. It won't become mainstream until the next gen of consoles are able to take advantage, because developers will still be required handle the current generation.
However, the demand from from developers themselves could be enough for console manufacturers to make sure it is available in their next iteration.
Where have you seen that next gen consoles are confirmed for AMD?
Also, if there is Nvidia tech here that AMD can't replicate, it doesn't mean that AMD can't license it.
Being able to fold your laptop into a tablet does not classify it as a "small Personal Electronic Device" according to the FAA. It is determined by weight/size. Anything under 2 lbs is considered a PED and is allowed for use during all phases of flight. The Surface Book is too heavy and would not qualify.
Although, flight attendants aren't walking around with scales checking and it certainly looks less conspicuous in folded mode. But, I've successfully used my 4 lb 15" Retina MBP during take off/landing many times without issue. YMMV
