[phew] You had me spooked for a minute, like I thought you meant the old
NSA key. LOL
I was reading though the YouTube posts. I guess MS has hired some
blogging FUD dogs to post a nonsensical barrage of crap [sigh]. Sooner
or later, I hope critical thought will prevail with these gadgets. The
weak and meek will be the last but will come around nevertheless.
So the "Windows key" according to this guy:
* lekid911 <http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=lekid911> * (1 month ago)
''In the final version , it's a "Home" key''
I haven't actually seen one of these machines, so I can't confirm this.
There seem to be some other rumors that MS is going to port an XP/XP
lite to it. I think that's utter nonsense when embedded manufacturers
have to make their own HAL for their machines. I don't think ASUS is
going to bother, but perhaps they will go the higher pricetag for all
the sheep.
