nothing much to add but to say that this isnt really new news as lindows was able to get a partnership with walmart as part of their advertising campaign. iirc, they also have a laptop for sale with lindows preloaded. the unit is not much and components are not really cutting edge. many sees it as something to catch the consumers attention ("LINUX LAPTOP!!").
