Sympathy for Microsoft - none found......

Nor was I expressing any, just pointing out. Microsoft has been so tied up in their OS issues (Vista and the development of Windows 7 as a quick replacement), I wonder if that contributed to their overlooking the implications of low-end OS needs.

I would agree, to a certain extent. MS has a significant imbedded market between business and home users -- you have to keep that going, and at least 'try' to make it better.

I don't know if they've "overlooked" a low-end OS, however. Time will tell... MS might surprise us one day.
