Does anyone use these for design. Do they have the power to run Adobe CS6. Looking for a way to design away from the office. Like the idea of it being smaller than a laptop. Any other ideas appreciated.

I use the Cintiq Companion. I have the first version. I believe that they are up to the Companion 2. It runs everything that I've thrown at it (CS6 Master Collection, Wilcom, Blender) without any hiccups. Plus it has all of the wonders of a Cintiq monitor as well built in.
It runs 8.1, which I was a little leary of, but for a tablet it isn't all that bad (contrary to what some naysayers quibble about).

surface tablets are overpriced overhyped and too tiny I'd get a 13" or 15" ultrabook if I were you.

That makes absolutely no sense. Since one he is looking for something smaller than a laptop and two I'm assuming by looking at the surface line he wants to do digital drawing.

I'd wait until next week when the new Surface Books come out. If you really want the graphical power but still want portability that's the way to go. Gets a dedicated GPU and much better performance running 3d intensive programs.

You'll pay a lot for a little performance increase. At least $1500 or so, and more for the average configuration.
