I agree with this .. there is no tablet that I know of that will run CentOS-6 ... not even the ultrabook with touch screens will work well with that. At least not the touch functionality. However, the Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga-2 series and the Helix series both work well with Fedora-19 including some touch functionality ... so those should also work with the upcoming CentOS-7 (or RHEL-7).
