Hello all, I am in need of some advice. I have received a tablet for my 
birthday (Acer Iconia Tablet A200-XE) My question is, is there a way to 
install Fedora on the tablet?

That will depend if its unlocked, if there is a Fedora kernel for that
exact ARM board (unlike most PC platforms ARM platforms are very varied).

In addition the standard Fedora desktop is a bloated memory hungry blob
so I imagine it would suck on this hardware, especially if you didn't
have an accelerated 3D X server.

However you've got some chance of getting Debian on it

is the thread working on this stuff.

Excellent!....thanks for this info, as it stands right now I don't think they've "perfected" the exact recipe for getting Fedora onto tablets as yet, but I can always hope that in the future they'll nail it. I think I'm going to go with Debian, only because it appears to have the least problems running on the various hardware out there.....until then I'll keep on chugging with my Fedora 217 laptop! Thanks again for the link and the info...
