Might try an N-Trig SP 1/2 or a Bamboo Feel might change your mind about pen use.
I use the Surface 2, and I can attest that's it's quite fine for drawing (although, TBH, I use it more for handwriting and calligraphy, but just from doodling around I can see how more talented people than I could use it).
It is much more expensive, but I bought mine coming from the perspective of "I need a full-fledged laptop, not a mobile OS tablet", so it didn't hurt so bad. If nothing else, it's nice to be able to play games on it, too (Civ and Beyond Earth are so much more fun when played on touch screen)
(FWIW, I hear the Surface 3 works nearly-or-just as well as the Surface 2 for drawing, but I erred on the side of the surface 2 because it was cheaper while the hardware was virtually the same, the only difference was the display)
Edit: The other big difference between the MS Surface 2 and 3 is the stylus - in S3 it's their own, but in S2 it's a legit Wacom stylus, which means you can buy stylus such as the Bamboo feel stylus and actually have something that feels like a pen. It's not something I've done yet, but I've heard other Surface owners praise having a real thing in their hand rather than just a stick of plastic.
Bamboo Feel is nice if it's compatible:

Thanks very much for your reply, it gives me a better insight thats for sure.
I have seen around that the pen tracking around the edges was less than perfect but I believe that will be ok to deal with.
A question about the recharging time, the tablet charges via the micro-usb port doesn't it? Wouldn't a higher amped adapter charge it faster?
Thats good to keep in mind about the magnets, Ill make sure to go for zipper/velcro
And lastly I doubt the lack of bios support will be an issue for what it would be used for, I wont be enabling bitlocking and its going to be used as an extender for my GF's laptop more than anything AKA if she wants to draw but not sit at a desk
I did look into the Venue however from what I've seen its not very 'art' friendly, I am honestly surprised that there arent more windows wacom/proper digitizer tablets out there besides the Surface Pro and this
And researching further has led to find that no, an ordinary Intous pen won't work, but there is one that will.
Again thanks for your feedback, its much appreciated.
