So I’ve been using the Averatec Tablet PC for about 6 weeks now and I’m fed-up. Averatec has a great design with great features at a great price that almost gives everyone else a great run for their money, except the fact that it’s buggy. Really buggy. I can do any harddrive or processor intensive things without the motherboard overheating. The mouse also flips out all the time making it close to impossible to work. So I said, “Screw it, I’m getting a Dell Toshiba.” (Dell actually doesn’t have a Tablet PC, neither does IBM, supprisingly.)

So I got a Toshiba. It’s a beauty:

• Integrated Intel PRO/Wireless (802.11b/g)
• Intel Pentium M 745 Processor (1.80GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 400MHz FSB)
• 80GB HDD (5400 rpm)
• 12″ Polysilicon SXGA+ Display (1400 x 1050)
• 512MB PC2700 DDR333 SDRAM (256MB x 2)
• Microsoft Windows XP Tablet Edition

PC Magazine also gave it 4/5 stars and the members gave it 4.5/5, it was TechTV’s (now called G4techTV) “Pick of the Week” and it was Laptop Magazines Editors Choice. This will be sweet.
