The Tablet PCs all run Windows XP Pro as the operating system. The current
Tablet PC Edition 2005 is only available commercially via the various
manufacturers of Tablets, preinstalled. It is not available for general use
from another source. You probably would be fine upgrading to Windows XP,
however you will not have the functionality available on current Tablet PCs
with their special hardware requirements.
