Tablet PC falls short of a religious eXPerience | |

Had Microsoft existed during biblical times, doth anyone doubt how the Ten Commandments would have been delivered? Bill Gates would have descended from the mountaintop carrying a computerized tablet running Windows XP, on which surely would have been displayed such commandments as ''Thou shalt not separate Internet Explorer from the Windows operating system.'' A few thousand years late, but Microsoft is poised to foist upon its minions a Tablet PC for real. The wireless carry-around, not much bigger than a spiral notebook, runs a special edition of the Windows XP operating system with enhancements for taking digital notes, converting handwriting into text and recognizing speech. The hardware will be built by Microsoft partners such as Acer, Fujitsu and Toshiba. The Tablet PC is initially targeted at both road warriors and ''corridor warriors,'' those folks who spend an inordinate amount of time wandering from meeting to meeting. Eventually, the company is hoping the Tablet will appeal to the masses. | ||
