Answer 1

Hi Danie,

Yes, Indeed. As long as it meets the compatibility requirements. Some users have reported that they've successfully install such software. You may need to check details about the said software from the developer to get the information you needed. By the way, we'd love you to see the tech specs of Surface Book 2.

Regards.

AutoCAD Architecture System Requirements are at the following link:

https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-architecture/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/System-requirements-for-AutoCAD-Architecture-2018.html

And Revit 2018 is at:

I have heard that people are having problems with utilizing these programs on the Surfacebook 2.  I would love fore Microsoft to view the system requirements and confirm that all ranges of work inclusive of Large Complex model file work can be performed on the Surfacebook 2.  I am an avid Surface Pro user and would like to reduce my life to a single computer but am hesitant since these concerns are out in the forums of both Microsoft and Autodesk and each recommend asking the other to confirm.  Since Microsoft may want the Architectural world to utilize this product as well as the Studio they may want to test and confirm to us that it works.
