Does anyone know of a US distributor for the Yeeloong netbook?
- Luyt 17y ago+1, that is an interesting article. I read he dropped the OLPC because it allowed running Windows on it. He expects the OLPC to turn millions of children into Windows users, and compares Windows to an addictive drug, and Microsoft to a drugs dealer supplying kids with a cheap first 'fix'. Also, Windows will not run on his Lemote laptop.
- elblanco 17y agoI will personally buy a Yeelong netbook and install Windows on it just so RMS has no computer to use at all if that's how he swings.
