A dual-boot OLPC XO with Linux and Windows XP?

microsoft is a for-profit company. Its moral follows that principle. It will do whatever it can to keep its current users and increase its market share. There is no way it can compete with FOSS except in creating an imaginary/conceptual advantage on peoples minds. Linux keeps gaining momentum and runs very well from embedded (phones) to clusters (google).

XP/windows-mobile/ms-whatever on XO will only increase its cost. This is strange. Even for-free, you will NEED an anti-vrius, so performance will drop-drop-drop...
