"OLPC was working with Microsoft to develop a dual-boot XO laptop, however Microsoft swiftly denied the claim."
This article conveniently left out the real meat of this situation. Which is, that OLPC is indeed working with Microsoft for the purpose of adding a Windows version option to the OLPC. The semantical point that it would be a dual-boot (both OS's installed together and selectable) was the only part that was denied.
