That's what i want to know as well. They can put these dummy OSes on ARM smartbooks if they want, but putting them on an x86-based computer defies logic.
@GGG When MeeGo is fully evolved, it will cover most basic needs by basic users... but use a whole lot less batteries, a whole lot less CPU, a whole lot less ram.... So it makes good sense.
But sure I would prefer W7 aswell. at least for a few years, til MeeGo is a complete OS.
MeeGo might be the Linux dist. that actually makes linux mainstream.. win over the game manufactors...
In the future you all might say, why use Windows, when MeeGo, is so much faster and so much better for gaming.
