Neutral

Plain and simple, the SugarOS was a bust. Even computer literate people found it a bit... odd and unintuitive (and ugly). That is not a knock on Linux, but on the GUI they put on top. With this less that ideal interface, you go to sell this idea on a 3rd World country, and they see it as crap being dumped on them rather than the OS that the "rest of the world" is using.

Nothing wrong with an alternative OS to XP though... just fix it and try again.
