Embedded XP?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

According to Cringely’s latest at InfoWorld, the soon to be released Dell PDA’s will be running an embedded version of Windows XP, not Pocket PC 2002. Could that be what’s keeping the price down? Should be interesting to compare the two I would think, although I think I’ll stick with PocketPc 2002 for my Xmas gift. I don’t like to be the guinea pig for new stuff, I’d rather have the one I know works!

By the way, thanks to Erik Noble for the head’s up on the InfoWorld columnist feed.

    JR did a nice job of describing how easy it was to install the security patch for Firefox, so I won’t try and repeat what he said, but I do have some additional comments. This is exciting. This is the way a browser should update. This changes a lot for Firefox. I don’t know how…

    As some of you know, if you’ve been paying attention, I’ve been trying, albeit unsuccessfully, to bring the RSS movement to the place I work. Mostly it’s been out of a fear that the emails we send our members are increasingly not being delivered. Well now, as Jenny pointed out, the Public Utilities Commission of…
