In 1990s IBM released a Windows NT competitor called OS/2 that can run MS-DOS, Windows 3.1 and Windows NT applications (using special method). Now Serenity Systems had bought OS/2 from IBM and market it as Ecomstation.
http://www.ecomstation.com Collection of freeware/shareware OS/2 applications: http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/ If Ecomstation can support XO laptops BIOS and still run MS-DOS, OS/2 and Windows 3.1/Windows NT program, IMO this new version of Ecomstation can be bundled with Commercial version of XO laptops sold to developing countries (US, Europe, Japan, Middle East). Perhaps the developing countries version of XO come with bigger keyboards, LCD screens, but use the same motherboards and chipsets as the developed country version. Is the above idea possible?
