You keep saying "ipad". "ipad" is not a generic term. It means a tablet device from Apple, running iOS. Most things called 'tablets' that aren't iPads run Android; a few run ChromeOS. Both of those are Linux derivatives, but not usable as full Linux systems. There is a class of laptop called a 'tablet PC' which is a laptop with a touchscreen and without a keyboard (although keyboards can be attached via BT or USB). Some of those can run Linux. There is another class of laptop called a '2-in-1' which has a touchscreen which rotates all the way around to the back, allowing you to flip it over and use it as a tablet. Some of those can run Linux. Does that help? -dsr- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
