• As a long-time Linux advocate, I was alarmed when it was announced that the OLPC project was being held-up to give Microsoft time to retro-fit XP to dual-boot on it. I really don't believe Negroponte could be that stupid - I think he just sold out.
  
  But now I'm glad to hear that the OLPC will not be a dual-boot machine. Because of this complete reversal from Linux to Windows makes two things clear to all the right people:
  
  1. Microsoft can't stand ANY competition.
  
  2. Those who believe Microsoft is sincere when it claims to embrace Open
  Source are fools. In reply to: "Microsoft, OLPC officially team up"
