I use the Microsoft SurfaceBook Pro. (fully pimped out_

It can be a laptop or a tablet.

Remember those old GMC commercials...."More than you need but not more than you want..."

I'm yet to use this thing in a tablet format.

However, a dozen times I have 'shared' my screen with the homeowners smart TV. Now that is really cool.

When that home movie tour pops on their six foot flat screen...wow!

I didn't realize I did such great work!
