I am not sure if there is enough demand for Windows Embedded anyway?
Since the appearance of netbooks, tablets, and such... it seems to make
more sense just running the stock Windows anyway, don't you think?

Oh, I think systems that were (more or less) instant on, could not be
corrupted, and looked like normal Windows, would have a not-small
market.

On the other hand, they'd be quickly exploited.

What do you mean?

I mean in the usual sense.

I still don't understand what you mean. Why would they be quickly
exploited, and in what way?
