Negroponte gives thumbs up to MS OLPC software

Submitted by Stony Stevenson
Stony Stevenson writes "Microsoft's Windows software works well on the One Laptop Per Child Foundation's XO Laptop, said the group's founder, Nicholas Negroponte in an e-mail posted on his website Wednesday. Negroponte also said that, after several months of discussions with the world's largest software maker, his foundation plans to adapt its Sugar software package, which runs the XO Laptop, so it is compatible with Windows. Sugar was designed only to work with a version of the Linux operating system that engineers from Red Hat Inc helped the foundation develop. "Sugar needs a wider basis," Negroponte said in the email."
