Making matters worse, [...]

Microsoft’s XP for low-cost PCs defines some boundaries

While Microsoft has seen it fit to keep XP around as its “relatively non-bloated OS” alternative to the Linux that has dominated this new category of “ultra low-cost PCs” (ULPCs), they’re certainly not giving away the farm.
