well don`t tell microsoft but they could get around their monopoly problems if they sold windows on a SD for use with MB`s
that way they would be selling hardware, not only software
they could also liscence this idea to other OS companies and get royalities.
for the most part the AMIGA OS was on a flash rom and it was fast as hell
in any case someone, intel or amd
need to redesign the whole pc
its 2005 for gods sake and the pc still uses some ancient buses and technologies
the new chip by sony "cell" will hopefully push things ahead quicker
