Couldn't you just boot linux on the surface?

I have a surface 3 and I think it is a really well engineered pc. I'm definitely happy with it. But I think the surface/surface pro line has features most other computers don't have. Such as the pen. And I think MS did do a lot of work designing those around Windows. So I'm just assuming a surface or surface pro would be more functional and better supported running windows. If you really wanted to run linux you probably have better options available to you. But you can technically use linux.

Linux driver support for a lot of the surface hardware leaves much to be desired unless it's changed much since the last I looked.

No worries. Me and many others might buy it. I wouldn't regret though. Keep in mind that even /dev/random will not work on Windows 10

Why wouldn't /dev/random work? Doesn't sound like something impossible, considering that they already support /mnt/c.

Windows runs great on Macs!

I wish. On newer models there's a kernel issue that prevents proper suspend and shutdown, which is a dealbreaker for a laptop. I have yet to find a workaround.

What, what? Aren't those Linux kernel bugs? I'm confused what they have to do with running Windows on Mac hardware, though perhaps I'm missing something

It originally said "Linux runs great on Macs!" Not sure why it was edited.
