XO Laptop Now Runs Windows - Via CNET News

One Laptop Per Child, also known as the XO laptop, came in one flavor, Linux. Now it is available in Windows, according to a CNET article in Ina Fried's Beyond Binary column:

The XO Laptop gets a Window Makeover (10/24/08)

"Microsoft has managed to slim down the OS enough to boot up off a 2GB flash memory card and has written drivers for a number of the XO laptop's unique features, such as its scratch pad, game controller, and built-in camera."
