Unfortunately from what I have read a lot of the manufacturers moved to XP
on the slightly higher models, and models with larger disks, and a lot of
those sales where XP machines. So much so that MS continued shipping XP and
supporting it. They have now even made a cutdown version of 7 for netbooks.
But it is progress, there are a heap of people out there using Linux on thei
netbooks, the missus was already a convert and probably only bought her
netbook cause she knew everything would just work with Linux.
