Hi All
My son will be joining Nan Hua Next year, May i know what is Tablet PC ?
Hello hello, I was from Tablet PC class

I signed up for the Tablet PC programme during sec 1 registration, before school starts... Seems a little late to sign up for it now

Tablet PC is basically a laptop, but you can turn the screen around or write on it with the stylus pen that comes with it (at least that's the pc I got in 2007).

It's supposedly useful cos you can use the digital version of textbooks for some classes, etc, but for my batch, we downloaded the textbooks but didn't use it to replace textbooks -.-\"
I remember using the Tablet PC for powerpoint presentations in class, and it's convenient cos we can do group works/projects in school instead of going to someone's house, but other than that, it wasn't as useful as I thought it would be :x
Mostly use it in sec1 and sec2, nobody brought their PCs to school from sec3 onwards. Soon we'll find it too heavy and bulky and will only bring it to school when needed.
My Tablet PC just became a personal laptop for me.
What I said about the PC may not be accurate though. They may have made changes to the Tablet PC programme, and maybe the newer batch will find the Tablet PC more useful.And let me warn you that we sometimes pretend to be using the Tablet PC to take notes during lessons but were actually secretly playing :x
Haha that was back when we were sec1s and were still excited over having a laptop in class

Among the whole of my batch, there were 3 Tablet PC classes out of 11.
