The little tablets should be able to do that, since\nthey are using a quad-core CPU - although with limitations (a\n64-bit CPU, running a 32-bit version of Windows 8.1).\n\nI have been reading through many online posts, trying to determine\nif I should sacrifice one of my 8-inch tablets to an experiment -\ninstalling and (hopefully) running Linux. Unlike with the Windows\n8.1 supplied on my two tablets (HP Stream 8, Winbook TW800),\nI could install a 64-bitversion of Linux to go with the 64-bit CPU.\nJust as I currently do with the Windows 8.1 installed on these\ntablets, I would leave a large micro SD card in the tablet with\nsome of the Linux installation put on that micro SD card. My\nmain concern would be whether or not all of the components in\nthese tablets has support under Linux.\n\nGood luck with your plans to use the new tablet for working\nsatellites!\n\n73!\n\n\n\n\nPatrick WD9EWK/VA7EWK\nhttp://www.wd9ewk.net/\n\n\nOn Tue, Feb 24, 2015 at 1:49 AM, Clayton Coleman <[email protected]> wrote:\n> Inspired by some Twitter traffic from WD9EWK & others discussing the\n> success of inexpensive Windows 8.1 tablets used for SDR, I decided to\n> purchase one last week.
