The Wall St. Journal had this one today:
Microsoft Corp. is taking an unusual approach with its new Windows 7 operating system: Customers buying many of the least-expensive laptops[netbooks] with the software are likely to be limited to running three applications at a time and miss out on other key features, or pay for an upgrade.
Holy Fail-Whale Batman! Netbooks are the hottest item today in the Windows world, accounting for any and all growth in the PC sector. By and large, they run Windows XP (which is actually not bad after using Vista for a few minutes). According to the WSJ, Microsoft is only making $15 off of each copy of XP being put on those Netbooks.
