Except: http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=1096 "Microsoft denies dual-boot Linux/Windows XO laptops are on its agenda" I think I remember this happening about a year ago with Negroponte claiming MS is working with OLPC and then MS denying it. I think Negroponte needs to wait for partners to make announcements with him (or evilly before him[1]) so he doesn't keep wearing egg on his face. Alan [1] http://blogs.zdnet.com/BTL/?p=7485
