Hey guys,

Since I've been on the road a lot more, I'm needing to upgrade from a smartphone data entry system to a proper notebook/ultrabook that I can mount in the car properly.  Ultrabooks with detachable touch screen (essentially converting them in to a tablet) look like a cool way to get it from the car and in to the customer's home without any major hassle, but would they be compatible with Windows 7?

Since all the hybrid devices now come with Windows 8, are the tablet/touch screen options only fully functional with Windows 8?  Would I be risking it by putting Windows 7 on them?  Has anyone ever tried it?

Does anyone else use a specific in car computing system that I may not have considered yet?  I'm sort of just building this up as I go and working it out on the fly.

Cheers,
David
