Arthur, One of the teachers at the local technical college (Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton, WI) came in at the tail-end of one of the evening classes I'm taking to show Windows 8 to our instructor. This guy had a 4-year-old tablet PC -- with the swiveling monitor that can lay flat for pen input -- that looked as if it had been dragged behind a car. But, by golly, it ran the dev edition of Windows 8. I thought it was very interesting. Apparently, the handwriting recognition is phenomenal. My instructor scratched out a few words and I saw his eyebrows go up as Windows correctly deciphered his words as fast as he wrote them. Clearly Microsoft is pursuing the entire mobile market.
