This is very unlikely! That is all I have to say...

Plus the fact there are people out there who have put Vista on their XP machines and everything is working fine. I haven't because I'm happy with XP Tablet for now.

Oops. Sorry, meant to type James, but Kevin came out. I need to change those active word shortcuts. They are too close together. Sorry.

Kevin,

We just talked with our OQO source who says this is not the case.

All publicity is good publicity as they say, well at least for a small company like OQO which doesn't have any marketing budget I bet.

What's the betting we get an announcement that Vista is shipping on OQOs at the end of the week!

Would they have to redesign the motherboard for that?

Yeah... um cause like you know how OQO couldn't afford the MSDN subscription and couldn't test of the betas or RTM's of Vista like way before the November 06 business release or even the January 07 release... so they had to wait til it was available on the shelf at the local computer store before they could test it... only to find, *shock of all shocks*, *horror of all horrors*, Vista sucks on the CPU they chose. Whatever. I wouldn't even take this with a grain of salt...
