Out of shear curiosity, I've purchased a Windows tablet PC to try and run OSA and some hardware on.
This is against some of your recommendations on the forum.
Considering its spec, its quite a performer.
Anyway, I have installed MySQL, OSA 0.4.8 without any hardware yet and it appears to be running well.
It does have some downsides, and its not fully up and running yet.
The issues I currently have with it are:
Windows 10 home - What on earth are Microsoft thinking installing random apps from their store whenever they feel like it?
Charging this device is a little odd. If the charger power is switched off then back on, it does not continue to charge - but I believe this is a windows thing.
They have installed Windows 10 x86 even though its a 64 bit processor.
I hope to overcome these issue by putting Windows 7 x64 on it, just working on backing up windows 10 at the moment which has been a task in itself.
On the plus side, this only draws 10 watts of power, and the cpu usage with OSA/MySQL is between 5-30 % most of the time. Hopefully better on Win 7.
A side note irreverent to OSA, this device can be setup to dual boot Android/Windows. I don't know how it can do this, but that is off topic.
(Just in case you think this is a Windows RT tablet, its not. I already have OSA running on it.)
I will keep this thread updated with my progress.
Thoughts?
