POPSXP Starter Edition...Give Me Some Of That! Mary correctly points out that Microsoft is in a bit of a sticky wicket: either it shuts itself out of this market by preventing manufacturers of non-Vista capable hardware from distributing Windows XP, limits users to a stripped down version of an aging OS and/or gives XP another stay of execution. For those of us in Ed Tech eagerly awaiting a new crop of Atom-based cheap laptops, as well as the 2nd generation Intel Classmate making its way to mature markets, it’s certainly time to look elsewhere if Microsoft’s only offering will be XP Starter Edition.
