I should also add that the Dell XT2 came with Win7 and a special screen for outdoor use. They all have a matte finish, but some also have transflective (outdoor) displays. That is, you can see the screen in full sunlight, with the backlight turned off (although it's seen better with the backlight up). The downside is that they max out at 5Gb of RAM. --Will support CAD, but no huge assemblies.

Lenovo has some similar convertible tablets, with great performance, but I don't believe that you can get that outdoor screen.

Oh, and Win 8.1 with Classic Shell is fine. No complaints I can think of.
