A tablet PC is a mobile computer that uses a touch screen and stylus instead of a keyboard and mouse. It comes in two forms - slate models that are like tablets, and convertible models that have screens that flip and fold like laptops. Tablet PCs run operating systems like Windows, Android, and Linux. They are portable, support pen input, and allow taking handwritten notes directly on the screen.
