Even if that were true, it was done by extending XP past its EOL and
dropping its price, to counter the threat of Linux, so Windows users
benefited from Linux even if they don't use it.
If that is "unable to compete",
Iwould like to know what you consider to be adequate competition!

Impossible.
I know. That's why I wanted him to look at it. No competition from
XP, Vista, or Windows 7 there.
Only WinCE supports the MIPS (if I'm not mistaken).
I'll take your word for it. I doubt it'll be offered for the Mininote
however.
