Was just curious, Why do we need to install VS on a tablet ? We can do all the development work at desktop or laptop and then just deploy our app to tablet.

Iris doesn't really exist. Iris is a gestalt entity composed of thirty normal developers.

I have a Surface Pro and my new, shiny Surface 2 Pro 512 GB should be in my hands by tomorrow. I find my original Surface Pro indispensable, but I'm not sure that applies to everyone.
I do a lot of high end computing and travel. For that, the Surface Pro serves fine. I teach engineering courses and I can now carry just the Surface Pro, mark on PPT slides with the pen and also run fairly compute intensive engineering applications. For me it's perfect for that purpose.
I've also done development work on it. It is serviceable, but not pleasant due to the small size. With an external monitor it is OK, but I found the 128 GB limiting (which is why I'm now getting the new 512 GB version). The Type keyboard is OK for me, but I'd add a nice Bluetooth mouse if I were to use it as a desktop replacement. Currently I use the MS Wedge mouse, which is passable for portable use, but a little uncomfortable for my big hands.
I keep a lot of my work on my SkyDrive, so it is available on any of my machines. Honestly, I find typing and developing documents to be nicer on the desktop, but annotations are nicer on the Surface Pro. Quite often I have them both open to OneNote and edit on both devices as convenient.
My opinion, for a laptop the Surface Pro is quite serviceable. I have 3 other laptops available, but I rarely have a desire to carry one of them around. The Surface Pro is much more portable and, aside from the smaller screen size, works just as well as any of my high end laptops.

I have just down loaded a new version of Raspian Wheezy that should have the GPIO library installed,
I did try last Saturday a got nowhere with it (much swearing) tried at work and zip bang! got it expanded it fine. I only have my RISC OS pi with me, also no card writer in my current PC(s) so it have to wait until Saturday. Matter of interest I have seen a couple of PI articles here but generally not very much, I seem to remember a Mad Science forum being suggested and then nothing more about it...

I have my 3rd pi article [episode 2] 'in progress' it is focused around the Gertboard. (info[^])
I have also another planned that is focused around the RasPi wireless dev platform Eve Alpha. (info[^]) which I received earlier this year.
+ a few other things I would like to do with them.
I also have the Adapteva Parallela Cluster due to arrive in the next few months, that could be fun (info[^])
Too much toys and not enough time...

I'll give it a read, I have looked at getting a Gertboad and thought why not just connect the I2C to Ardrino a few darlington's and off I go! having said that time is always the enemy (just looking at that super computer Parallell thingy looks neat!)

Look forward to that article Dave as I'm a big AVR proponent.
In fact it's a coincidence because I'm developing a somewhat similar board using a ATMega2560.

Try and deal with tet troll and what happens? The pink porkyness of spam appears. 
I'd tear my hair out; if I had any.

Do not feed troll. The only thing when they will stop posting. Just Ignore.
"reporting their messages as spam" still makes it funny for them.

I disagree, an infestation of this degree needs to stomped on.

Btw. are the email addresses blocked too? if so it would be interesting what types of email addresses the trolls use? If it's just some throwaway addresses (e.g. mailinator etc.) it might make sense to block those addresses from registering. Setting up a new e-mail account at yahoo, gmail, etc. requires a bit of effort.

Too many trolls.
And All i saw was a bit of name changing, quite desperate but the doom helped.

How can I go from paying £1336 car insurance last year (2 cars, fully comp) to paying £716 this year.
What is the only difference? I went from driving a 2 Litre Peugeot 206 CC to driving a 2.5 Litre Jaguar X-Type.
As an accountant I am aware of the vagaries and complexities of numbers, and yet I cannot fathom out how this happened.
I am not complaining, £716 to insure 2 cars fully comp where either driver can drive the other car fully comp and with all the extras (legal, Car hire, Personal injury etc) is a bargain, but I am unable to work out why the massive drop.
Oh well, I shall just have to live with it.
EDIT
I have just realized what the drop is for!
It were 10 years ago that I was stopped by Her Majesty's Constabulary and asked to blow into a bag.
Finally my Drink Driving conviction has fallen off the back end of the licence.

Have you or they changed the voluntary excess, this can make quite a change.

No, the £100 excess remains constant.

That sounds like something a boy racer would drive. Did it have blue lights under it? There is your answer.

Or perhaps I am thinking of a 205.

It was a pocket rocket, effectively the GTi version but with a drop top roof.
But even so it should not have made that much difference, especially when you see the car I went up to.
