Bruce's opinion is biased and distorted on this issue. He flipped out after the M$ engineers were around and one of the OLPC presented their side of the story. If you check the posting he's done below the article, he's completely missed the point.<br><br>http://radian.org/notebook/paradox-of-choice<br><br>Great quote from OLPC:<br>"To claim we should prohibit XO customers from running XP in the
interest of freedom is to claim everyone should be free to make a
choice — as long as it’s a choice we agree with."<br><br>"...it was brilliant, there was three up against a thousand, and boy, did we give those three heaps!"<br><br>> Date: Sat, 12 Jan 2008 08:57:34 +0900<br>> From: vk6ksj@westnet.com.au<br>> To: plug@plug.org.au<br>> Subject: [plug] Why Microsoft Must Control One Laptop Per Child<br>> <br>> Any comments ?<br>> <br>> Why Microsoft Must Control One Laptop Per Child<br>> http://technocrat.net/d/2008/1/10/33518<br>> <br>> -- <br>> PosITive - Photography and Information Technology<br>> www.vk6ksj.net<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> PLUG discussion list: plug@plug.org.au<br>> http://www.plug.org.au/mailman/listinfo/plug<br>> Committee e-mail: committee@plug.linux.org.au<br><br /><hr />Join Lavalife for free. <a href='http://a.ninemsn.com.au/b.aspx?URL=http%3A%2F%2Flavalife9%2Eninemsn%2Ecom%2Eau%2Fclickthru%2Fclickthru%2Eact%3Fid%3Dninemsn%26context%3Dan99%26locale%3Den%5FAU%26a%3D30288&_t=764581033&_r=email_taglines_Join_free_OCT07&_m=EXT' target='_new'>What are you waiting for?</a></body>
