Thread: HP Project Slate Tablet PC has Windows 7

A report by TechCrunch said, HP has no plans to offer computer tables (MTB) "Slate" is based on Windows 7 anymore. MTB Slate was launched by HP in his speech to Steve Ballmer at CES 2010 exhibition. The slate was introduced to run the standard version of Windows 7, although HP will probably build a classroom friendly touch similar to its TouchSmart PC line.

Slate changes can occur in many directions, not only the operating system (OS). TechCrunch's report said, "HP's MTB could give Intel-based hardware on the Intel hardware more energy-intensive. It will also exclude the possibility that Windows 7 will be the OS of the machine."

At this time, all is speculation because HP has not confirmed anything. However, this time coincides with Palm announced the acquisition of HP makes some people speculate, rather than Windows 7, HP will work on installing MTB WebOS - OS was developed for smart phones and Pre Pixi by Palm. The Windows 7, Mac OS X is compatible with the interface than the mouse controls, while the WebOS is designed with the ability to touch even in mind If this is true, maybe it is also the HP engineers felt: TechCrunch's sources say that "HP is not happy when Windows 7 is OS MTB."

Hello

I guess the HP Slate became the first causality of the HP Palm deal.
