See what Microsoft apparently did (below). Organised crime.

Anathematising Abject, Apologetic Asus

| And just to insult our intelligences a little further:
|
| Â Â When asked about rumors that Asustek faced pressure from Microsoft and
| Â Â Intel over the use of Android and Snapdragon in the Eee PC, Tsang
| Â Â said "no, pressure, none."
|
| Riiiiiiiiight: no, pressure, none - perhaps he should have read his Hamlet
| (Act III, Scene II) a little more closely. If there was no pressure, why on
| earth did he apologise, making himself and his company look awkward? - it
| just doesn't make sense.

More evidence of Microsoft "tying up" the Asus EeePC

| Then, one of the makers of Netbooks will release a fantastic product using
| the paid Ubuntu/Netbook Remix, which will make us all forget about the EeePC
| â or, maybe weâll remember it as one of the makers which used GNU/Linux in
| order to launch a product, and then gave in to Microsoftâs pressure.
|
| The real question is: will the next maker manage to resist Microsoftâs
| pressure? Or will everybody end up closely tied up with Microsoft?

| TechTree: States like Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka promote the Linux
| operating system in its education and government sectors. Will ASUS roll out
| Linux alternatives for the new 904HD and 1000H models in India?

| with Windows XP would be available to the Indian market.
