Rob Bushway has installed Windows 7 on an old Motion LS800 slate Tablet PC to see how well the next generation Windows will run on hobbled older hardware. I must say it is impressive how well it appears to run and Rob seemed surprised as well. It looks like Windows 7 does a better job at handling a very low resolution display (800×600) like that on the LS800 which is good news for netbooks. Rob shot a video of the Motion running Win 7 so take a look and see for yourself.
