Subject: Re: Microsoft joins OLPC

I am not sure if this is OT or not.

Other posts have noted that OLPC will have to increase the specs on the
hardware by nearly a factor of two to run Windows.

MS also insists on sharing they joys of Windoze's lack of security with
the underdeveloped peoples of the world.

On the flip side, those who have seen a computer, at this point conflate
Windows OS with computers.

Linux needs work before it will be competitive, in spite of our hopes.
