    Maybe this'll clear up your confusion, always a pleasure to help someone learn something new. http://www.viewsonic.com/products/tablet_pc_viewpa d1000.htm http://www.infocater.com/docs/compchart_viewpad.pd f Ours have Win2K embedded, which was the only option when we purchased them. Apparantly the unit must have "XP Pro" as the OS to qualify as an official "Tablet PC" but they meet all the other requirements, and are hardware-identical to tablet PC hardware that's currently on the market. We've had them (at least those that survived) well over a year, although the first 8 months of that timeperiod was spent in storage (gotta love the government.) Brian K

  4. Unhappy with OUR tablet PC purchases. on Major Tablet PC Running Into Problems? · · Score: 1

    We've purchased over 100 tablet PC's from a major manufacturer, and have had over 25% failure rate. The Windows2000 embedded OS just bluescreens with no warning whatsoever, or fails to boot at all. The docking bays die, or refuse to release the unit, or the CD-ROMS don't work.

    It has been a serious cluster-frag.
