Hmmm, they don't mention Linux on their web site, maybe you can get them 
to change that. :-)

The WCE may be a way to expose a lot of people to Linux. In fact I 
wonder if they run the risk of getting in trouble with M$ if they don't 
have licenses for every box Windoze installed.

That option does come up but I have never used it. I guess I don't know 
what they would do with disk partitioning if the disks are not the same 
size. It would be nice if you could just tell the installer to use a 
scheme that it "thought" was good and just tell you if the disk was too 
small.
