Microsoft Rumored to Sell Windows 7 OS on Flash Drives

CNET has a source claiming that Microsoft may decide to make life easier for Netbook users anxious to upgrade to Windows 7.

Since debuting its new operating system last fall, Microsoft has often advertised Win 7 on Netbooks. But for owners of machines that are missing CD/DVD drives, installing the operating system is no small feat.

The solution?

Windows 7 operating system loaded and sold on a flash drive, allowing usually disadvantaged Netbook users to easily upgrade their machines.
