Neowin.net Unveils...
At Microsoft's request, I've removed this post and the image. Neowin took down their article and their comments, but I'm leaving up the comments as a compromise. So for those of you who saw it, consider yourself lucky. ;-) To those that might have the article cached or whatnot, please don't re-publish it in the thread - thanks.

Many aspects of the UI and the software update discussions sound very good. The next issue for the community, upon release of the software, is availability of this new version of the OS for existing users of HP 4705 and such given the orphaning of HP 5555 which was allowed to be done by HP with no recourse by MS.
Let us hope that there is a strong press from MS to strongly encourage HP and other manufacturers to come to the aide of the end users and make sure the new OS is made available at a cost level which is reasonable given the investment in the hardware.
---Opinions of an owner of HP 4705, HP 5555, HP 5450 and others before..
:roll:

Well, my personal opinion is that the Dell X50 series should be upgradeable to the new OS, and I mean, Should. I got one round of OS upgrades on my X5, from PPC2002 to PPC2003, (though regrettably not to PPC2003SE). I am hopeful that Dell will do the same this time round, i.e. ship the X50 series with the new OS and release a user update for a nominal fee. Well, one can hope........
