MS has nothing to do with this. They are simply the OS vendor. It sounds to me like this is just a 3rd party system integrator offering to sell a port for CE to these notebooks for use in niche market applications. The MS bashing just makes you look stupid when MS has little to do with this. Also, this article is especialy wrong about app availablity for Windows CE 6.0 on an x86 processor. It may be true of Windows CE on ARM or MIPS but there is sadly little software for x86 outside niche embedded stuff. And since it's WinCE 6.0, even applications that do have an x86 build might break on the new kernel. Are you people retarded? MS has nothing to do with this. They are simply the OS vendor.

It will give you nearly "instant on" and a better surfing environment. Plus you can then boot into a real OS if you need to. How about adding splashtop instead?

If a manufacturer doesn't have to obey Microsoft, there is no need for them to offer only bottom end netbook machines with Linux.

Here is an example (60GB hard drive, bluetooth, webcam) from a small manufacturer where the OS is a separately-quoted item, and Ubuntu is one of the options and the only option that is no additional cost.

This machine with a **full unencumbered version** of Ubuntu Linux installed from the vendor would absolutely spank any Aspire One machine with Windows CE installed.

The only question is how the OEM's who get forced to ship CE can still make sure customers can get a ready to install Linux image to replace it with. Because if they can't they will end up losing the bottom end of the market to no-name vendors who don't have to obey Microsoft.
