| Microsoft squashes talk of dual-boot XO laptop |
|---|
Lesson learned: Just because something can run two operating systems doesn't mean it's a "dual-boot" system.
Microsoft put the kibosh on talk of a dual-boot XO laptop after OLPC chairman and founder Nick Negroponte told IDG News Service Wednesday that the two organizations are working on such a project. "While we have investigated the possibility in the past, Microsoft is not developing dual-boot Windows XP support for One Laptop Per Child's XO laptop," a Microsoft representative said in a statement Thursday.
