Microsoft has recently announced that the fee OEMs pay for a license of Windows XP Tablet PC Edition will be reduced by as much as $15, which will put its price on par with that of Windows XP Professional. Whether this means we’ll soon be seeing a price drop on Tablet PCs is anybody’s guess as I don’t think that the “expensive” software license fee of the Tablet PC edition was really much of a factor but rather the greed, errrrr… I mean the eagerness of the various notebook PC manufacturers to profit.

In the mean time, I’ll be sticking with my Windows XP Pro powered laptop. Tablet PCs are just soooooo not there yet
