FlipStart Shows True Colors, Runs XP

FlipStart XP

This one gets filed under Duh. The fab FlipStart PC by Paul Allen’s startup company Vulcan, is going to be produced with Windows XP as it’s OS of choice. Smack me into consciousness, because I don’t think I saw that one coming. Paul Allen and a Windows product. Who would’ve guessed?

Ok, I don’t mean to appear ignorant. I’m very excited for the FlipStartPC to start running demos in my town and have been following the system fairly closely. It appears to be a solid offering and both Gadget Madness and BIOS do an excellent job bringing us this news. I’m sure some nut will crack it open and have a BSD or Linux sourceforge project on it soon enough.

This device is very exciting for me too but it might take a while until it becomes a reality. Maybe in 2006 when Intel comes up with better processors.
