Surface Icon for Desktop?

I posted this over on the Surface forums but nobody replied.

I realize it's specific to the Surface tablet, but it might be a common thing used by any Windows 8 devices so I thought I'd ask here too.

I had this working before I did a clean install of RT 8.1 (long story)... but I forget how I did it.

I put the Computer icon on the desktop from Personalization - and if I go into Change Icon, it lets me choose the DLL file. I seem to recall there being a Surface .dll file somewhere on there with a nice image of the Surface tablet. That would look so much better than generic computer monitor in imageres.dll.

Anyone know where it's at?

Thanks

That is so weird. I swear on my original Windows RT (8.0), it was there. I seem to recall it was in a weird location, almost like it was intended as a promotional thing but wound up in the final build anyway.
