 Great product once its configured properly July 18, 2008

Pros:
I think this system is probably the best deal you'd get in a TabletPC.
The top-notch Wacom 'Penabled' tablet hardware is a real nice bonus, because it supports pen pressure & it has an eraser.
The Fingerprint Reader is a real bonus, It makes me want to have one on all of my computers.
It comes with Corel Painter 4 Essentials, and Microsoft OneNote 2007.
It will play DVD-RAM discs that my Panasonic DVR creates -- Nice surprise.
Cons:
The AMD processor is not as good as the Intel Core 2 Duo, but you are paying a lot less.
The battery protrudes from the back, and the screen is smaller than the base.
I did a speed test with a friend, against a 2 year-old MacBook Pro (Boot Camp running Vista Business)
We compiled a very large software project. His was 25% faster.
Screen is glossy.
Remedies:
When I first bought this machine, I noticed that this thing would not stop accessing the hard drive -- It didn't make any sense to me. I thought Vista was at fault. So, I started out with the intention of getting rid of Vista. However, with a bit of research, I found that Vista was not the problem with this machine, It was HP's bloatware. Once the basic startup programs and services are properly configured, the system runs fairly efficiently. Vista also has the added benefit of tweaking minute details in how power gets used in their 'Power Plans'
Update:
After using this for a couple of weeks, I find the fan and heat output to be annoying, I adjusted my 'Power Plan' to run the CPU at 50%, even when plugged in, so it generates less heat. I just switch it it 'High Performance' when I need full speed.
I also purchased an anti-glare screen protector (photodon.com) and the screen glossiness is pretty much gone. This is a great improvement.

This labtop is good, but please be aware that it won't allow you to downgrade the operating system to windows xp, or linux or ubuntu. And the problem is not the typical SATA drivers needed for a windows xp installation, the problem is that HP simply disabled the sata options on the BIOS and the xp installationwont even reach the point where is tell you no hard drive is found.
So unless you're willing to only be able to work with vista, stay away from this product.
Much Improved and Highly Productive Tablet July 19, 2008

As an artist, what sold me on this PC was the fact that this second gen model of the tx series now offered a WACOM pen. Also, I wanted a small labtop for easy portability. I didn't want to lug around a 17 or 15 inch size laptop. This was the best of both worlds and to top it off, it's a solid machine loaded with features that work, like the finger print ready is the coolest!!! Works like a charm. My only two gripes would be that the machine does get rather warm (from the AMD processor?) sometimes hot along with the battery life isn't the longest but I usually plug it in with the cord. But otherwise I've had no other issues and it's been great for on the go and traveling. I personally enjoy the vista OS and have had no issues. It automatically does everything I need it to do along with prompting me to OK software use. Works like a charm.
 An excellent little laptop July 16, 2008

I personally don't have a problem with Windows Vista and thus can't default the computer as did the previous poster. In fact, I find Windows Vista networking so easy that its a joy to work with compared to that of XP. How hard can it get, I turned this computer on clicked network and there were my other laptop and my desktop all ready to go. Installing a network printer was also a no brainer; I selected network printer, Vista found the two networked printers and installed them both. Everything I want this computer to do it does well and fast. Other models in this line are supposed to run hot but so far this doesn't run that much hotter than any of my other computers. I'd recommend it to anyone that is looking for a small laptop/notebook type computer. I'd also recommend Windows Vista.
first affordable Tablet PC July 16, 2008

A very good price for a more than adequate Tablet PC. It does not excel in any category except price, but it does not have any glaring weaknesses. It does have a tendency to run slightly warm, especially when placed in Tablet mode where ventilation is more obstructed. of course, I have only owned my PC for a few hours, so this is a first impression.
What prevents this from receiving 5 stars is the bundled software. I received no office productivity software except for trial editions. I expected a word processor and spreadsheet program, given the nature of this machine.
