So let me get this straight

They are shipping modern computers with a modern OS and then crippling them for the 3rd world by going backwards to Linux.

Presumably this is just one more burden for the poor and disadvantaged, since they obviously don't deserve to use what the rest of the world uses.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions and in this case someone's Linux fetish.
