In an interview with Forbes Magazine Asus Chairman Jonney Shih has confirmed his company's decision to launch two tablets later this year. One of these tablets will run Windows. The other will run either Google Android or Google Chrome.
Windows tablets have an edge over Android or Chrome tablets simply because they are capable of running all desktop applications as well as those apps designed for tablets. You can even connect a USB keyboard or other peripherals to a Windows tablet. There is one problem though. Windows applications aren't necessarily built for launching with a stylus or finger. It is true Windows 7 does have some touch-friendly features, but those are not available in the Starter Edition of the OS.
An Android tablet will offer a smartphone-like user interface. It can run thousands of third-party Android applications, but unlike a netbook it can't run desktop apps.The Chrome OS is built around the Chrome web browser. Most of the applications that can be run on a Chrome tablet will be web-based applications.
