[Richard Chirgwin]

...and the $100 rhetoric has started to erode. Now it's $175, with the 
explanation that it was always going to need time to get to $100...

"However, Negroponte disclosed that XO's developers have been working

<http://money.iwon.com/jsp/qt/short.jsp?symbol_search_text=MSFT>) so a 
version of Windows can run on the machines as well."

Bet it doesn't even dent the cring-making triumphalism the project gets 
in the US press, and rich geeks plot the plastic-led cure for starvation.
