Microsoft's Surface Pro 3 and 4 get a bunch of firmware updates

Microsoft is releasing new firmware updates for both the Surface Pro 3 and Surface Pro 4 today, some of its oldest supported devices in the lineup. Indeed, the Pro 3 came out almost four and a half years ago, so it"s certainly notable that it"s still receiving updates.

Here"s what"s new for the Surface Pro 3:
