    You can connect a USB keyboard to just about any Android tablet.


Yes, I'm aware of the concept. But at that point, I do wonder why you
wouldn't just have a laptop instead.


Have you ever tried taking the keyboard of a laptop?
You can have a tablet - and turn it into a laptop when you feel like it!!!

I have never used a tablet, ever. I do have a smart phone running Android. I have never ever had anything to do with any form of Apple computer, so I am concerned that I will not be able to help if she finishes up with an iPad.

This is the reason I am hoping she will choose something like a Samsung. I might have a chance then. Even better a laptop where I could install Linux. However, her money, her choice.
