Casio brings Windows/Linux laptop to U.S | |

Thanks Jose. Microsoft and Linux backers may hate each other, but a new notebook from Casio is forcing their operating systems to live together. Casio will release on Wednesday in the United States its Fiva MPC-206E notebook, which contains a copy of Windows Me and a subset of Linux. As previously reported, consumers can use Windows to run most applications on the notebook but can switch to Linux to play MP3 tunes or read certain files. "Everybody has been trying to figure out how Linux is going to enter the (notebook) business," David Ditzel, Transmeta's chief technology officer, said in March. "Rather than see a Linux machine that is separate and distinct from a Windows machine, there is going to be a possibility of a peaceful coexistence." | ||
