There is a windows version of the A500 (think it's called the W500). Not sure if Windows is compatible though.

Wndows 8 can be put on A500 but it's not easy and not everything wors. I've read where a few have tried it without any luck. The W series will accept 8 but thats with alot of work... but it can be done.
