ForumsThere will be at least three versions of Windows 7 for netbooks according to Microsoft. Two of them will be primary versions and one will be a low-end Starter edition. This edition can only run three programs at a time.
HP’s Mini 2140 system offered three operating systems which are XP Pro, Vista Business, and Novell Inc.’s SUSE Enterprise Linux.
Kyle Thornton of HP claimed that no other netbook maker “supports business operating systems because, frankly, they are not being supported by Intel or Microsoft at all.”

That’s garbage!!! They have just taken the Windows Vista Basic model and cut it off at the waist. I truly hope that NO ONE buys that version!

WTF!
Why not just run XP? It will do anything a Windows user would ever need a netbook to do, and with a gig of RAM you could run 8-10 programs at once with little or no lag. This is another prime example of taking something thats not broken and “fixing” it until it is.

Hey, that’s what Microsoft does best!
