What it essentially boils down to is that Microsoft really, really don't like Linux and have therefore moved heaven and earth in order to block OLPC sales and adoption. Linux was chosen because it reduced costs and allowed more flexibility. This was the correct *business* decision for OLPC. Removing Linux and replacing it with Windows in order to capitulate to Microsoft and stop their sabotage will make the X-O costlier (XP requires additional hardware and a non-free software licence) and less flexible. - Rob. _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
