Welcome! :smile:

You could always try the free editions of Lite or Core first! :wink: That way, you can see if there are any boot issues or hardware incompatibilities. I did see some custom kernel for Surface 3's but, with another Ubuntu based distro so, I'm fairly sure it will boot. Having a touchscreen though, I think Core would be a good one to try first. I always try both though, just to see which works better :smirk:

You will indeed need the Linux Kernel for Surface 3:

Remember, the Surface was built specifically for Microsoft.
