Surface Book 2,
i5, 8gb, 256gb ssd = $1766.35 after cash back
i7, 8gb, 256gb ssd = $2408.95 after cash back
i7, 16gb, 512gb ssd =$3051.55 after cash back
I think the G8, quad core i7's are probably the best value.
Plus GST back if you travel (and somehow you don't get a grumpy TRS officer that gives you spiel about bringing it back in).
Nice deal for an awesome price of hardware. Loved the Book 1.
