Have you ever considered changing the Battle.net forums to a similar point system so the more popular issues remain surfaced?

With IE's trident engine working with the GPU to ensure great performance over competitors, why does the current implementation of WebGL in IE11 seem to lag behind performance wise even in your own tests, e.g., FishGL?

Would it be possible to add a mass real-time reply broadcast system so we can watch tournaments/etc inside the game client as if we were spectating? http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/7379547886

Not only would it use only a fraction (very... very small fraction) of the bandwidth of a HD video stream with the same quality, but it would allow us to interact with the game in ways not possible with video streams.

At a simple level it might just broadcast the game data one way, but at a more advanced level 3rd parties (tournament hosts) could include resources that make the experience better than what is currently available for the SC2 e-sports community.

What makes it most exciting is that not only could it help the large tournament hosts expand what is possible with E-sports, but it gives power to smaller tournaments that simply don't have the budget to do so. Dorms could host their own small series, or even just a group of friends who want others to follow them play. Even individuals can give their friends and fans a new way to watch them and get into the game. Of course a simple time delay system deters abusing the system ;)

I'm sure there would be hurdles to overcome, but for the game and E-sports to grow, it almost feels inevitable such a feature is needed.

Will we ever see other features like NFC, Biometrics, GPS, a 2nd usable USB3 port, LTE, etc in the Surface Pro series? Or will striving for thinness, great power efficiency and using specific materials like Magnesium (NFC) for the case, make these features unattainable?

With neither the Surface Pro 3 nor the Surface 3 having touch covers, should we expect they are being discontinued?

Is there anything you can tell us about ideas you've had for new covers?

How about a Type cover where each of the physical keys has a touch sensor built into them? Then you perform gestures on top of the physical keys, e.g., pinch to zoom and the new gestures from Windows 10.
