[PLUG] Cheap x86 Windows tablet?

[Greg Helledy <gregsonh@gra-inc.com>]

The recent discussion of falling phone prices got me thinking of 
something else:  my "around the house" laptop is really old and for 
light-duty use a tablet might be more convenient.  It seems like the 
prices for Windows 8 tablets are coming down now.

How easy is it likely to be to install linux on a Win 8 tablet?  Any 
recommendations on models to consider?  Also, I really want a keyboard. 
 It seems like a bluetooth keyboard with a separate battery is going to 
add hassle; is that true (should I limit my search to tablets that come 
with detachable keyboards) or are bluetooth keyboards ok?
