My journey with the Linux Operating System: November 2018

Dual boot OS Tablets give us the best of both worlds , that is , Android OS and Windows 10 OS .

My vision of a 15.6 inches

Dual Boot OS Tablet

hardware specifications

Screen size : 15.6 inches (minimum)
  Why 15.6 inches [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ]
Computer hardware with 15.6 inches screen
[ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ]
Taste is individual . Some consumers like
15.6 inches screen size Tablet .

Taste is individual . Some consumers like
18 inches screen size Tablet .

Physical Appearance :   The 15.6 inches Dual Boot OS
Tablet can have the physical appearance of a Tablet or it can have the physical appearance of a Smartphone .

FIRSTLY , IF THE 15.6 INCHES DUAL BOOT OS TABLET LOOKS LIKE A TABLET , the Tablet should have at least a 15.6 inches screen size .
Below are examples of computer hardware that are foldable 360 degrees and computer hardware with detachable keyboard so that it can be turn into a Tablet .
1.   SONY Vaio Duo 13 13.3 inches
2.   LENOVO Yoga 500 15.6 inches
3.. ASUS Transformer 3 12.6 inches
4.   Microsoft Surface Book 13.5 inches

Another hardware feature of the 15.6 inches dual-boot OS Tablet is , if there is an incoming call on the 15.6 inches dual-boot OS Tablet , regardless of which OS we boot up , Android OS or Windows 10 OS , the user can pick up the phone call just like a normal Android Smartphone or Windows Smartphone .

SECONDLY , IF THE DUAL BOOT OS TABLET LOOKS LIKE A TABLET , the Tablet should have at least  3 units of full-size USB 2.0 or 3 units of full-size USB 3.0 on the Tablet itself and all the necessary hardware specifications mentioned below .

IF THE 15.6 INCHES DUAL BOOT OS TABLET LOOKS LIKE A SMARTPHONE , the Tablet  should have at least a 15.6 inches screen size and it should be thin and light and sleek and slim like a Smartphone .
As of today , 26th.October2018 , big screen Smartphones is only
6 inches or 7 inches screen size .
Could you imagine a 15.6 inches Smartphone ?
Nowadays making a phone call with a 10.1 inch Tablet or 10.8 inch Tablet or 12.2 inch Tablet or 12.9 inch Tablet is normal
BUT USING A 15.6 INCHES SMARTPHONE OR 15.6 INCHES TABLET TO MAKE A PHONE CALL MAY SOUND UNORTHODOX .
A good implementation for a 15.6 inches Smartphone is to increase the current screen size of Smartphones from 6 inches or  7 inches to 15.6 inches .
There is nothing wrong with having 15.6 inches Smartphones . If we can have 15.6 inches Laptops in the market then having a 15.6 inches Smartphone in the market today can be accepted especially when the 15.6 inches Smartphone is thin and light and sleek and slim and the 15.6 inches Smartphone can function like a dual boot OS Tablet .

Regardless whether the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid looks like a Laptop or it looks like a Tablet or it looks like a Smartphone , regardless whether the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone is thin or light or sleek or slim , the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid must have at least 3 units of full-size USB port . Having 3 units of full-size USB port in a 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid is very useful . Firstly , we can use the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid for hard disk drive cloning . Secondly , we can use the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid to install other Operating System . But before the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid can do hard disk drive cloning and install other Operating System , there must be a UEFI/BIOS present or installed on the System Board of the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid . For the hard disk drive cloning process , 1 unit of full-size USB port is connected to an external DVD-RW drive (so that we can insert a bootable Live CD like Clonezilla for cloning purposes) and the other 2 units of full-size USB port is connected to the SOURCE hard disk drive and the TARGET hard disk drive . There are many solutions out there that can clone a hard disk drive without using a PC or a Laptop but if we can do with it a 15.6 inches Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid
it would be great and it is definitely a bonus .

P.S. Let us say for the sake of elegance , or appearance , or
because the hardware/software manufacturer want to make
the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid
thin and  light and sleek and slim and they decided not to
include USB ports inside the 15.6 inches Linux
Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid , then the
hardware/software manufacturer can always use a
  docking station and put all the necessary ports inside the
  docking station .

Processor/microprocessor : INTEL Core i7 or a combination of INTEL Core i7 with QUALCOMM Snapdragon 835 , that means , 2 processors in one machine like a dual processor system , just like in the PC environment . Mixing 2 different processors/microprocessors architecture is an engineering challenge for computer design engineers [1] . But if if is possible , the benefits are
worth it . The combination of INTEL i7 processor and Snapdragon 835 processor should make the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid or the 15.6 inches Linux Cellular Laptop an incredible multitasking machine , so , when doing multitasking jobs like below , the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid do not stutter/lag/slowdown/hang/crash .

making a phone call (Snapdragon 835)
receiving a phone call (Snapdragon 835)
sending sms , WhatsApp , WeChat , Instagram , etc. (Snapdragon 835)
connecting to Wi-Fi (Snapdragon 835)
high-speed Internet access using 4G LTE network (Snapdragon 835)
connecting to Bluetooth devices (Snapdragon 835)
recording videos with rear facing camera (Snapdragon 835)
uploading a 4 GB video file from the Internet (INTEL i7)
uploading a huge file or a collection of files above 10 GB from the Internet (INTEL i7)
watching YouTube/Videos/Movies (INTEL i7)
hard disk drive cloning using USB port (INTEL i7)
transferring files from one computer to another using USB port [ 1 2 3 4 5 ] (work with Windows OS only) [INTEL i7]
transferring files from one computer to another using Ethernet cable or Wireless (INTEL i7)
using USB port to connect to a External USB DVD-RW drive to watch DVD movies (INTEL i7)
using USB port to connect to a External USB Blu-ray drive to watch Blu-ray movies (INTEL i7)
using USB port to connect to USB Printers for printing (INTEL i7)
using USB port to connect to USB Scanners for scanning of documents (INTEL i7)
using USB port to connect to Digital Camera for backup and restore and other things . (INTEL i7)
using USB port to connect to USB TV Tuner (INTEL i7)
installation of CAD programs for Linux Operating System and running CAD programs for Linux Operating System (INTEL i7)

ALL THESE TASKS MENTIONED ABOVE WHEN
SELECTED AT RANDOM , THE 15.6 INCHES
LINUX LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE
HYBRID SHOULD BE ABLE TO
PERFORM SIMULTANEOUSLY WITHOUT
THE SYSTEM STUTTER OR LAGGING OR
SLOWING DOWN OR HANGING OR CRASH

Linux Operating System : Ubuntu or Knoppix

GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) :
Integrated INTEL HD Graphics 5500 or NVIDIA GeForce
GT940M 2GB or QUALCOMM Snapdragon 835
A strong GPU so that the display is very responsive , browsing
the web is fast and casual games can be played [ 1 2 3 4 5 ]

Display Resolution : minimum 1920X1080 pixels
Full HD . Touchscreen Technology .

Display Technology : TFT or LED or whatever .
Most important , the 15.6 inches Linux
Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid
screen/display should be able to see in bright sunlight .

Camera : Front Facing Camera 5 megapixels minimum
Rear Facing Camera 8 megapixels minimum with
autofocus (SONY-made)

I STILL THINK A GOOD QUALITY FRONT FACING CAMERA AND A GOOD QUALITY REAR FACING CAMERA IS A NECESSITY FOR TAKING DECENT QUALITY PHOTOS AND DECENT QUALITY VIDEOS IN A 15.6 INCHES LINUX LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE HYBRID .

UEFI/BIOS(software/firmware) must

be present on the System Board so that we can do hard disk drive cloning and install  other Operating System on the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid .
To install other Operating System  on the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid , the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid should have at least ,  2 fullsize USB 2.0 port or 2 full size USB 3.0 port to be able to do this . 1 unit of full size USB 2.0 port or 1 unit of  full size USB 3.0 port is connected to a DVD-RW drive and the
other full size USB 2.0 port (or USB 3.0 port) is connected to a
USB Flash Drive or External USB Hard Disk Drive . Then insert a
Live DVD (Linux OS KNOPPIX 8.1 or Linux OS Ubuntu 17.10 )
to begin the software installation on the USB Flash Drive or External USB Hard Disk Drive . BECAUSE OF THE MULTITASKING NATURE OF THE 15.6 INCHES LINUX LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE HYBRID COMPUTER HARDWARE , installation of other Operating System like Linux OS KNOPPIX 8.1 or Linux OS Ubuntu 17.10 on the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid does not override the existing hard disk drive OS which is inside the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid . The only snag when installing other OS is , the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid cannot make telephone calls and receive telephone calls , cannot send and receive sms , cannot WhatsApp , cannot WeChat , cannot
Instagram , etc., etc. After the other OS installation is complete and after we have reboot/restart the
15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid then only we can use the 15.6 inches Linux Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid just like an ordinary Android
Smartphone , just like an ordinary Windows Smartphone .  Now , we can make phone calls , we can receive phone calls , we can send sms , we can WhatsApp , we can WeChat , we can watch YouTube/Videos/Movies , we can connect to printers , we can connect to scanners , and a long list of everything the PC/Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone can do ……..…….. we can also do with our 15.6 inches Linux  Laptop/Tablet/Smartphone hybrid .

P.S. THESE HARDWARE SPECIFICATIONS MENTIONED
ABOVE LOOKS INSANE FOR A COMPUTER
HARDWARE BUT THIS IS THE KIND OF MACHINE I
HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR . WITH THE ABOVE
MENTIONED HARDWARE SPECIFICATIONS , THE
15.6 INCHES LINUX
LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE IS
GOING TO BE  SLIGHTLY THICKER AND SLIGHTLY
HEAVIER BUT  THEN THE HARDWARE/SOFTWARE
MANUFACTURER WOULD HAVE A REAL WINNER
HERE BECAUSE IT IS A WELL ROUNDED
MACHINE FOR WORK AND PLAY AND THIS IS THE
DEVICE FOR EVERYTHING . IT IS A VERY GOOD
SOLUTION , I ONLY CARRY ONE DEVICE AND I DO
NOT HAVE TO CARRY SO MANY DEVICES FOR MY
LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE NEEDS . I DO NOT
HAVE TO CARRY 3 ITEMS . I ONLY CARRY 1 ITEM .
I ONLY CARRY ONE UNIT OF 15.6 INCHES LINUX
LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE HYBRID .
   ANYWAY , IT IS MANY TIMES
BETTER TO CARRY THIS THAN TO CARRY THIS
IF THERE IS A HARDWARE/SOFTWARE
MANUFACTURER THAT IS WILLING TO MAKE
THIS KIND OF DEVICE , IT IS WORTH WAITING
FOR . I THINK THIS IS A STEP IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION .
  I THINK THIS IS THE FUTURE .

   IF THERE IS NO HARDWARE/SOFTWARE
MANUFACTURER WILLING TO MAKE THIS
15.6 INCHES LINUX
LAPTOP/TABLET/SMARTPHONE HYBRID , FOR
SOME REASON , WHICH I AM NOT AWARE OF , I

HOPE SOMEBODY IN THE NERD LAB [ 1 ]

WILL MAKE ONE .

  RADIATION FROM CELLPHONES . KEEP
CELLPHONES OR SMARTPHONES OR
CELLULAR LAPTOP A SHORT DISTANCE AWAY
WHEN USING IT . AVOID PROLONG USE OF THE
DEVICE . [ 1 2 3 ]

can have the physical appearance of a Laptop but it must be thin and light and sleek and slim like just like an Android Smartphone or a Windows 10 Smartphone .
Another thing is , the Windows 10 Cellular Laptop   should be foldable 360 degrees or the Laptop's keyboard should be detachable so that we can use it as a Laptop or a Tablet .
A good example is the :
  SONY Vaio Duo 13 13.3 inches  and
  LENOVO Yoga 500 15.6 inches  and
  ASUS Transformer 3 12.6 inches and
  Microsoft Surface Book 13.5 inches
