Why doesn a Tablet PC have as fast a processor as a comparably-priced notebook?
The Tablet PC uses a low or ultra-low voltage CPU chip that’s actually considerably faster than its “number” indicates. This also improves battery life. With the introduction of the Intel Centrino and Dothan, the Intel-based Tablet PCs will be comparable with faster desktops. As an example, according to Intel, a Centrino 1.6Ghz processor is comparable to 2.4Ghx Pentium4-M.
