    It's a tablet?
    Are you sure it can even run Java/OpenGL?

    I believe the problem is that the Windows RT tablet doesn't have a desktop, it is Windows 8 live tiles. Not sure though, so don't take my word for it :/

    Edit: If it is running Windows 8 with OpenGL drivers, it will work. But tablets with Windows RT wont work

    Ha, these are the tablets we get for school, that they claim have 8 hours of battery (Which is a load of horse****).
    They SUCK at everything, except sucking...

    If it works the same as a desktop, then just get Java and the MC launcher and play normally...

    Good and bad. Some of our teachers have us take notes on our tablets... which is obviously not efficient, for obvious reasons. The only upside to the tablet is that you don't have to carry textbooks everywhere, however some of the online textbooks suck. Some of the online books are just so bad I bring my book to class now.

    That's too bad, I take half my classes in school, and half online. It's pretty sweet.

    This is why I use Windows 7 instead of 8, too many problems with trying to install Minecraft on it >_<
