Personally, as a college student, I love taking my notes digitally. OneNote automatically runs OCR and indexes every note that I take, which means I can search through my handwritten notes (at least for me, it's immensely useful come test time). Plus, you can ink right on top of powerpoints and PDFs distributed by professors, which helps give some additional context to whatever you're saying and saves some effort note-taking wise. I can't go back now that I'm able to harness fully digital notes. Also, there are other tablets out there (see: iPad), but the lack of a digitizer makes note taking pretty frustrating. It's irritating that they don't support any degree of pressure sensitivity, palm rejection, etc. Surface 3 (base model) is actually very reasonably priced, in my opinion, for all of its value add.
