So, I was bored tonight so I decided to install windows 8 on my convertible tablet in my sig (Lenovo s10-3t). It works pretty well, its fast enough and the touch works great. As I expected the new livetile interface is great on a tablet.
One major issue, since this is a netbook(kind of anyway) the native screen resolution is 1024x600 which is not high enough for any of the metro apps to run. If you try to run any of them there is an error stating that the res is too low to run that.
If this system is designed for tough-screens and tablets it needs to be able to support low-res tablets. (my opinion anyway). I will probably be playing with this for the next few days but this tablet-based OS seems to work pretty well on a tablet (still not sold on the desktop aspects but whatever)
Update: I did some research on the web and found that you can force resolutions by editing the regedit; now that I changed it so that it will work on this computer. It distorts everything but it works well. This OS is ideal on this computer. Frankly, it is the best OS on a tablet like this one and it is fun to use.
