General Configuration

Hardware

There are three variants of the Tablet PC currently in use by the physics department, the older HP/Compaq tc1100, the HP/Compaq tc4200, and the HP/Compaq 2710p. The major differences between the three tablets are the color scheme, hard-drive size, video card, and processor.
