Working from home, a coffee shop, or even the beach has become the norm for many Joburgers. As long as there’s an internet connection and a cup of coffee – or in some cases a mojito – you’re all set. But this convenience of setting up shop anymore can often be cut short if your workstation can’t keep up with your hybrid lifestyle. This is where Microsoft Surface for business comes to the rescue.
