- josteink 13y agoVery well. It does better than most version of both Windows and Linux as far as smoothing and responsiveness goes. It runs well on much less resources. It does have some quirks when trying to use it with software designed for swiping in mind and a keyboard and mouse, but that's probably not going to be an issue here. I say Android could be a good choice, and it will also give them a migration path from X86 should they later on want to.
- gambiting 13y agoThere is plenty of phones and tablets which run ultra-ultra low voltage of intel x86 CPUs and run Android - they are almost always faster and more energy efficient than their ARM counterparts.
