Micro$oft

Info:
Micro$oft is funding an Intel Development program to put Windoze in
hardware. Targeted for "Laptops" and "Embeded" Systems, the 3-chip
"replacement" of the Personal Computer will not ever have to be
"booted", Micro$oft claims. This will allow the machine to be turned
ON and OFF at will.

This information comes from an "untrusted" source who works at
Intel's plant in Folsom, California, so take it with a grain of
salt.

However, if true, such a machine can't "boot" anything. FYI...

Cheers,
Dick Johnson
