There's a Tablet PC to suit your working style and needs. Each design offers distinct benefits.
The convertible model
Tablet PC has an attached keyboard and looks much like a notebook PC—until you want to use it as a writing pad. Then, you simply rotate the screen 180 degrees and lay it flat over the keyboard for a comfortable reading and writing experience. Convertible models offer all of the advantages of a Tablet PC plus immediate access to an attached keyboard.
Slate models
The slate model Tablet PC is ultra-light and slim, with innovative docking solutions that offer access to a full-size monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Slate models are ideal for people who spend much of their day on the go.
Docking stations
Just like today's portable computers, Tablet PCs can be docked at a desk to support a full-size monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
Support for grab-and-go docking and Instant On let you quickly remove your Tablet PC from its docking station and take it anywhere you need to go—without having to wait or detach peripheral devices. Innovations in Windows XP Professional dual-monitor support offer the advantage of using the Tablet PC monitor as a second monitor while the Tablet PC is docked at the desk, increasing the power of the desktop by offering simultaneous portrait and landscape views.
