“I was browsing on the Surface and Explorer too forever to load a page and get to native resolution.”
Did you rule out a slow connection to the router/internet source because too many folks were on line at the same time?
I’ve have Win 8/IE 9 on my 5 year old amd machine and it connects really fast and loads pages quickly. I don’t have the “surface machines” though.
I did. No issue w/ the laptops in the store though just the Surface. Also the store was not particularly busy. I’ve been in Apple store in same mall when they were wall-to-wall & no WiFi probs so if it was due to poor WiFI then dumb of Microsoft not to beef up ahead of a major product release like the surface.
