It came preloaded with Windows Vista, along with an optional upgrade to Windows 7 available on request. The convertible laptop is heavy, has abysmal battery life, and heats up faster than a toaster.</p> <p>On the positive side, the tx2 is relatively compact with its 12&quot; display, easy to carry around, includes an optical drive (which I still use occasionally), and features mostly Linux-compatible hardware. The touchscreen works under Linux, although I&rsquo;ve currently misconfigured something there.</p>
