Microsoft to blame for 1gig memory

[Gir]

It’s probably common knowledge, but it’s interesting to know that because of limitations microsoft have put on the availability of Ultra light xp, if companies want to ship computers with it they have to have a limited set of hardware. I’m not sure as yet if it makes any sense.

Whilst there’s a grain of truth in the story its entirely up to the manufacturers which Licence they buy

But do MS still sell other license types? I thought they had discontinued?

I do find it strange that MS wouldn’t satisfy demand but I guess they don’t plan on supporting XP for ever…

They must do as Sammy has a 160gb HDDD so wouldn’t qualify as a low cost PC

microsoft doesn’t have a clue what its doing anymore.

fumbling around in the dark.
