HP TC1100 Tablet

My HP TC1100 (added to my collection in 2009)

  • Centrino Pentium M @ 1.2ghz
  • 1GB RAM
  • 32GB IDE>SD HD

Slate tablet form factor with removable keyboard stand.

This TC1100 is a fairly boring XP era slate tablet, not super interesting, however I had a very similar TC1000 in the early to mid 00’s, it looked identical (though had Compaq, not HP branding), it used the slower, but much more interesting Transmeta Crusoe CPU, which was x86 “compatible” via an emulation abstraction layer, it was clocked at 700mhz, but ran roughly equivalent to a Pentium 3 500mhz, but at VERY low power consumption for its time (a maximum of 6-watts).  I would love to collect a TC1000 some day again too.
