Any RDP app (for example Microsoft Remote Desktop) will allow you to remote into a Windoze box from an iPad and operate as if you are at the keyboard. However, I would say it's restricted to EC tunnel type stuff, trying to actually play that way would be virtually impossible.

I've played on a Surface Pro 2 no problem (with a keyboard and mouse connected) if you want a tablet for EQ but thats pretty much a laptop anyway... older Surface RT tablets are not Intel CPUs so you can't play on them.

Regards,
Mg

The new windows tablets are same size as an ipad and some will even have core i3/i5 and decent performance....

I play all the time on my asus Chi T300. With a mouse in tablet mode it's not horrible.

From what I understand ASUS Tablets use Intel processors so since they're x86, they should be capable of playing EQ. Intel Atom chips may be able to play it, but they are very lightweight so even something as old as EQ will still probably melt the chip.

they are not running windows tho right? so most likely a linux variant and you would need a windows emulator on that.

nm i guess some of them are running win 8

Chi T300 runs EQ just fine, doesn't even get hot. Basically a mid to low end laptop or high end tablet depending on how you look at it. I also use the active pen a bunch which is primarily the reason I bought it.

Specs:

CPU: 1.2GHz Intel Core M 5Y71 processor (dual-core, 4MB cache, up to 2.9GHz with turbo boost)
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 5300
RAM: 8GB DDR3L (1600MHz)
HDD: 128gb SSD
OS = windows 8.1 pro x64

Yeah it's kind of a non-issue now. So many small windows tablet devices coming out. And if you bought an iPad you should have just bought a windows tablet. Don't know why anyone would willingly submit to being stuck in Apple land tablets.

I hate laptops as it is, anything smaller and it's just not doing it for me... I like a big one.
