I've been excited about Microsoft Surface Pro 2 tablet and I thought I'd try using it as my main machine. It's, after all, a modern x86 computer with 10.6" pressure-sensitive screen with a stylus, that weighs 2 lbs, and iPad cover-like keyboard that just might be good enough to make it a decent tiny little laptop. I thought I'd install Ubuntu on it; with its recent focus on touch enabled device, surely it must run well on this x86 tablet?
Unfortunately, it doesn't: device support is barely there in 13.10

and there's no indication that anything will be better in 14.04.
Is there an alternative device that works better with Linux? (I believe Ubuntu is the main candidate to work well with touch devices, but if there's another distro, I may switch)
