The system currently boots directly into Fedora and has been tested successfully with Fedora. Touchscreen, Wi-Fi, audio, display, brightness controls, and Microsoft Type Cover/trackpad functionality all worked.Windows 10 was previously installed on this Surface and may still be present on the internal drive, but I have NOT verified that Windows is currently bootable. This listing is for the machine as it is now: booting into Fedora Linux.IMPORTANT SSD ISSUE:
The internal 128GB Samsung SSD has confirmed read/SMART errors and should be considered failing.The computer currently boots and operates, but the SSD is NOT reliable and could deteriorate further. This is the main reason the unit is being sold FOR PARTS OR REPAIR.PHYSICAL CONDITION:
• Approximately 1 cm chip at the top-left corner of the glass
• No major crack across the active display
• Display assembly is fully loose from the chassis and secured around the edges
• Touchscreen currently works, but seems to have phantom touchesBecause of the failing SSD and loose display, this is best suited to a Linux enthusiast, repair project, parts machine, or someone comfortable troubleshooting older hardware.Please review all photos carefully. No guarantees are made regarding future SSD reliability or Windows functionality.Tablet only. Charger and Type Cover are NOT included unless specifically stated/shown.
