Tablet PCs? Is there ANY tablet out there that managed to at least boot FreeBSD? (I'm not talking about Xorg etc, just a simple console with FreeBSD base system would suffice for now -- even NetBSD would be great) I'm looking for a Tablet PC that runs Linux/arm (not just Android), and it would be nice if that model was also able to run FreeBSD; and if not now, so in the foreseeable future. Any suggestions w.r.t. models? Thanks, -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
