Question by April H: What is the difference between a tablet PC and a notebook PC?
I saw the other post but was not fully sure for example the Toshiba Portege R400-S4834 Notebook PC and the Toshiba Portege M700-S7003V Refurbished Tablet PC both have swivel tops and are both categorized as Tablet PCs but what is the difference, I want to use form filling software program but want the easiest experience in the field and email the results back to the office… will either work? which one works better?

A tablet allows you to write on the screen with a stylus or use your finger as a mouse.

Actually, both of the laptops you mentioned are tablets. A couple of differences between the two laptops – R400 has no optical drive and has worse performance than the m700, but its lighter and it looks much bettter. I personally own a toshiba m700 and I find it easy to use and fast (with its 2.4ghz intel core 2 duo). Get the m700 – its definitely the better deal.
