James A, No stylus is depicted or listed in the specifications here on Newegg or on Asus site.

The oprating system Windows 8.1 is in italian or in english?

Accepted Answer

English initially but it can be easily changed in PC settings.

Question 4

Does that have a CD rom, as well as a DVD player on it?

Accepted Answer

Steph, Any DVD player {DVD reader} is normally also capable of playing CD-rom (Considered legacy or backwards compatibility!) However a simple old CD-rom player might not be able to play DVDs.
DVD-RAM should be able to be played on most DVD burners.

T200TA lacks an optical drive though, you would need to connect one externally via USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port(s).

Question 5

does the Keyboard dock allow to install a laptop HDD?

Accepted Answer

Yes. There a SATA bay in the keyboard. I took the HDD from my old laptop and installed it for extra storage. I don't use it for installing programs since they won't run when you use just the tablet. Get an SD card for extra program space. Awesome device!

can i rotate  the tablet so I can read text in a portrait mode?

Accepted Answer

Yes, If it doesn't rotate, you may have to unlock the screen on the Charms Bar settings.

When I received my T200 it had windows 8 on the computer, no Microsoft Office. But I received plenty of  free monthly offers. SINSE then I've installed  windows 10 and still no Microsoft office.

Question 8

Can the 64GB drive be replaced with a different SSD?  I am aware of the supplemental bay, but I would prefer a larger drive that would go with the tablet when undocked

No, hard wired in tablet

Question 9

Is this something that a child could easily play Steam games on?

Depends on the game. It has a Intel Atom processor.

How long is the cord for the charger for the T200? I read that the T100 cord was only three feet long, and that could be a problem.
