That aint' too bad for a $199 PC. That being the case, I wonder if the other 77 PCs actually ended up being used.
OSes are like political parties. There are two that people know about, one is really liberal, one is somewhat conservative, and 99% of the public don't realize or care that there are others besides the big two.
I suspect that after a couple of weeks, at least some of the cheap Linux PCs end up as hosts for old/second copies of Win98 or Win2000. Those older OSes run like a bat outta hell on newer hardware, even bottom-feeder hardware. As long as you can find drivers.
That's not to downplay Linux, just saying that some folks might experiment with Linux and then revert to Windows.
ShadowAce: Tech ping?
That’s a brilliant observation, absolutely right on.
