I use my Surface Pro to view stock quotes that I enter into a spreadsheet on my PC. Sometimes the numbers are hard to read due to the small screen. I connected to my Surface Pro for the first time today and WOW, it came out big and clear on the monitor. I can't say enough how much I love this product. I understand this works on almost all brands of pads. If it matches your rug, buy it. You will not regret it. I am using a Panasonic 24 inch TV as a monitor that has lost the ability to receive signals from an antenna or cable. It has an HDMI port.
