Funny thing, that. The *old* hardware was also Windows-capable; it's why the SD-card slot was put in. It seems the news being reported are "it could run Windows before, but it'll be less sluggish now," and I'm not sure why people are getting riled up about it. The machines won't ship Windows by default, and no core OLPC dev effort is really going towards it.
Thank for these info. can't we suppose that now Microsoft will invest more effort and energy to have Windows run very correctly on OLPC then, when the government have decided to invest in OLPC insist that they get the OLPC on windows instead as the model on Linux (I understand that anyway the interface will be the same, aka sugar ?)
