MY computers use XP and video to the TV next to impossible.
I'd like one with a keyboard as well.
It may be beneficial that I have a different OS (than XP), however not sure of the compatibility with the Ethernet?
Any suggestions for such a tablet?
My primary intent is to watch live races (twinspires).

In working with a long-time client, I was surprised to find that a Microsoft Surface does not have any place to plug a hard-wired connection. It was also a nightmare to share.
Not sure about other tablets.
My only personal experience with using a tablet was around 2004 when I took one to Saratoga. In about 30 minutes of using my finger my arm was dead. What a difference a mouse makes! They had them at Walmart, of course.
Connect XP to TV:
You just need the right equipment. A video card that supports the higher resolutions and HDMI out should work.
Google is your friend.
HDMI video cards for XP.
