MeeGo is run by Intel. Intel uses MeeGo as a means to cut off the software middle man (Microsoft and others), so the whole profit margin goes to Intel. Nothing wrong with that, but MeeGo is made and licensed to be 100% open source and to be used by OEM. 100% open source sounds nice, but it is not. It means that a fully functioning MeeGo will never be released, since most HW drivers are not open source, and the MeeGo team refuse to include these drivers in their distro. For MeeGo to be fully functional (on netbooks), someone else has to redistribute MeeGo along with all closed drivers.
