Red Hat has yet the operating system, and expect a small footprint of "gnome" to run on the unit.http://www.escolabr.com/portal/uploads/img462041309c410.jpg.. The govern is expect to buy and distribute the machine by the "milions" (about 3milion units/year)... only in Brazil May be I will have 2 in my hands next week.. With a market of about 8 milion units (in -3 years) of a machine that does not runs windows.. I think it will run BSD (netbsd/freebsd) have wireless sound and camera, small footprint, lightweight.... It is the dawn of an era of market where only open source software... Any educational program or "thing" that fits on that computer will be bought by the govern in milion units... and of course will cost much less than the "commercial" solution we have today...
