Safe to turn on?

Safe to turn on a surface pro from Microsoft?
Can they detect me turning it on without being connected to the Internet?

[Sinister]

I doubt they can unless they are some Surface Pros from school or work. If its fresh you should be fine

What if I had the item and planning to refund it. Can they tell if I turned it on when I have received it?

You should be fine, don't worry to much brother.

Refund it first before turning it on. I know that is what is told by Apple refunders so I assume there's a way to tell when a device is activated, and if Apple does it I don't see why Microsoft wouldn't. Better to be safe than sorry, you've lived your whole life without that Surface Pro, you can go another 1-2 weeks while your refund is processing.

Be on the safer side and turn it on AFTER you get your money back

So true but I am like a child when I get new tech

Wait until refund confirmation that's what I've been telling my customers and I'm in the process of doing like 2 or 3 surface pros.
