Autodesk Sketchbook drawing experience on Microsoft Surface is a revelation. UI simply disappears and its just, a canvas and your creativity. At this price point, it will make a fine "sketchpad" to take to museums, life drawing classes, Hudson Valley riverfront landscape painting, etc ;)

Like the iPad, I mostly see this as a complementary accessory to a regular laptop, but it surface or other. But maybe that's their market, the thing you can virtually carry everywhere and in a pinch actually get some work done, if a bit painful (due to size and power limitations).

I'm actually tempted to try one out, but with the unencumbered OS version.

Does it come with uninstallsble copies of candy crush?

Possibly, but it will be reinstated after every update. :(

Would it be good enough for architecture diagrams and app mockups? I ask because this seems to be a bit low powered.

I have zero copies of it in all my Windows devices.
