Negroponte Not Seeking Replacement, OLPC XO to Run Windows in 60 Days or Less (Laptop Magazine)
[Press] Posted Mar 11, 2008 14:48 UTC (Tue) by jake

Laptop Magazine is reporting two interesting things about the OLPC. The first is that contrary to other reports, Nicholas Negroponte is not looking to "replace" himself, but is looking for a CEO for the company. The second is that Windows XP will be available for the XO soon. "'Microsoft and OLPC are in discussion on how to release it, as well as how to announce,' he said. Negroponte added that the Windows operating system should be available on the XO in less than 60 days." (seen on OLPC News)
