Instant On for Xandros Netbooks?

We’re all pretty much aware that Xandros is part of the netbook world we now enjoy, and they are not being forgotten for sure. Xandros has announced their Presto OS which boots in seconds and runs on old and slow PC’s as well. So This gives me a hint that future netbooks specially Eee PC’s will have Presto pre-installed instead of SplashTop.

Presto is not totally an OS replacement but it gives you what you primarily need for your internet activity. And by the way, Xandros is developing more application for Presto so everyone will have more options rather than just fast booting your machine.

Presto Beta version will be available on March 16, but retailing starts on April 13.
