Microsoft has laid out a new roadmap for the development of Windows Embedded at the Embedded Systems Conference Silicon Valley 2008. The Embedded roadmap outlines the "renaming of its family of products and plans for new solutions in key device categories". Kevin Dallaes, general manager of the Windows Embedded Business, explains: "With today's strategic road map announcement, our aim is to present the evolving Windows Embedded product family in an intuitive fashion, making it easier for our customers to choose the right platforms and tools for their needs."

Unless Industrial Controls is code word for Ultra low cost personal computers, then XP Embedded is NOT for ULCPCs. Really, sometimes your obsession of everything Microsoft/Windows does get the best of you.
Of the devices listed, the following are the same class of machine as ULCPCs:
ATMs
Full Featured Point of Service
Gaming Devices
Multimedia Internet Devices
Media Servers
Networked Media Devices and Servers
Windows-based Terminals
So either ULCPCs as well as those utilise XP embedded, or only those machines use XP embedded and ULCPCs use something more expensive.
Your choice. Neither option yeilds you a favourable point.
