It sounds to me like you had a somewhat defective model. That said, the surface book is not the best physical laptop computer and will always be less stable than a standard hinge laptop.
> Windows now has the Ubuntu subsystem, but I immediately ran into serious dealbreaker issues. I couldn't get Haskell or Elm to run on it because a core system call hadn't been implemented yet. The team is aware of it and I'm sure it's slated to be fixed soon, but I still couldn't do my work on the laptop without firing up a VM or dual booting.
Why not just use Powershell and the windows builds? They work fine. Powershell isn't going to kill you.
But it's also weird, because I got GHC to compile just fine.
