Windows XP Starter Edition Review

Posted by timothy on from the shill-game dept.

Digitalommm writes "Paul Thurrott has a story on the latest developments on Windows XP Starter Edition. There are some very good points that the Linux community could adopt. An example is end-user training videos such as how to use a mouse." This is an optimistic, even glowing look at the Starter Edition, which even for Thurrot was not available for unsupervised use, only demonstrated by Microsoft for him. (For using-a-mouse videos, I would suggest also Roblimo's book Point and Click Linux .)

    Oh come on. It's not that difficult. Anyone who can pass grade 3 can use a mouse. Worst case scenario you need the one button solution
