We are considering buying some of these with docking stations.  Any advice?    How does it handle the load?

I find the Surface Book bit overpriced, but maybe it is useful to tell you that Captivate 9 (don't try with 8, it doesn't support retina screens) works wonderfully well on a Surface Pro 4. I have an i7 processor, 8GB of RAM and a 256SSD on it. Must confess that I didn't expect it to work so well, even Photoshop works great!

Thanks Lieve.   They are expensive!

I'm wondering how your Surface Pro 4 does on editing and rendering out video, like a Captivate video demo, or even a Camtasia to mp4 render.  One of the reasons we were looking at the Surface Book is the ability to add a dedicated gpu.  We quite often record an hour-long WebEx session, edit it, and publish it out as an mp4 video.
