What Kind of Tablet PC to Buy?
nic barajas asks: "I'm going to be attending college this fall, so I have been looking into a computer to use on campus. My preference has been to looking at the Tablet PC, although they are still in their proverbial infancy. I have been looking at a multitude of vendors, including Sager, Acer, and Toshiba. I'm looking for something that has a sizeable screen (at least 12"), decent storage (40GB+), and a long battery life. What are some of the better models on the market with these characteristics?"
I guess the case of tablet PC, Speech Recognition, etc. shows how the open source movement is good at replicating what others have done. But very low on innovation. I mean open source hasn't bought out the best handwriting recognition engine! Guess the innvotation that can bring in money and food on table is always done by so called close source! If you wanna disprove me give me a link to a open source handwriting recognition that runs on a tablet PC and is better than microsoft's tablet OS.
I -did- read your comment, and just did so a second time. It wasn't till this time I even noticed your title of "God...".
I was, in fact, referring to how you seem to shut out the tablet so quickly and hashly without even considering its good points.
It seemed that, as is usual on Slashdot, you were regurgitating the same old crap we already know -- anything Mirosoft is bad - anything Linux is good - all hail communism!
