Microsoft Brings Penny Arcade Artist To An Engineering Team To Work Out Surface Pro 3 Issues ~ By Darrell Etherington

Microsoft is gearing up to begin shipping its Surface Pro 3 tablet, and many have already had a chance to test out the latest in tablet/laptop hybrids. One early tester is Penny Arcade’s Mike Krahulik (aka Gabe) who was a huge fan of the Surface Pro 2, because with the stylus, it was an awesome digital artist tool for hand-drawn creations. Gabe wasn’t so impressed with the Surface Pro 3. He said it introduced some lag into the equation for menu navigation and drawing (I’ve tried it myself and I found the same thing), and which put the home button in a new, much more inconvenient location.
Microsoft took this feedback to heart — so much so that they brought Gabe in to provide feedback to a team of Surface Pro 3 product engineers and designers. He offered his thoughts on the home button placement, general performance issues and the way the pressure sensitivity feels “off.” The team took vigorous notes while they were doing this, and presented Gabe with a sampling of the various Surface Pro 3 hardware configurations. After about a week, they came to the Penny Arcade offices and showed him some modified devices that included fixes, such as a temporary disabling of the Windows Home hardware button when the pen is in use on the screen.
