I came across this one while researching my next purchase. It's from Dell and is advertised as being "pressure sensitive" for use with the standard Windows 8 stack. I read the reviews and it seems like the newest version of this device works better than the originals and is well received...

Dwig, Thanks for the info about Modern UI apps. I did not know that. The requirement to install on the main drive seems limiting, but it's important info to know when deciding which system to buy. Seems like 64 GB provides a lot more useable space. Relocating and removing the recovery...

I don't own one of these devices, but I'm seriously considering it for the future. My understanding is that these things are just small windows machines. If that's the case, I'd expect a microsd card to just show up as another drive to windows that you could use like any other Windows drive on...

Jimbo, I just came across the following. It's a crowd source project right now, but it's interesting. Console OS will let you run Android on a Windows PC or tablet The possibility of running android apps under a Windows tablet is enough to freeze my decision making at the moment. Kind of a...

That's a great suggestion. I love playing around with those types of projects. I already have virtualbox installed on my main system, and could use it to test specific apps that I'm interested in. Sounds like fun, and it shouldn't cost me anything to set up (I'm very careful with my money)...

Thanks to both OldGuyGeek and Tepid. Your comments have cleared up a lot of my confusion. The Universal Apps links were interesting. I wish Microsoft well. They have a long long way to go. I just don't know if there's enough time for them to get apps "unified" before the market dismisses their...

Newjack, Thanks for the reply. Yours has been the only response to my question so far. The Windows tablets that I'm looking at are full functioning Windows (I believe). Sort of like a Surface Pro with an 8 inch display, with the hardware assembled by Dell or Lenovo. That means they can run...

Hi Everyone, I'm doing research to find out if I should purchase a Windows tablet (Dell Venue or Lenovo Ideatab Miix 8). I'm confused about what apps will run on these systems. I'm looking specifically for a golf gps program. I found a couple programs that look interesting, but they all say...
