It is not supported, period.  Honestly most people don't care.  Even I
don't care, I already have a modern OS that not only runs on those
platforms, but powers Windows update as well :)

Yes, a number of Microsoft people are carrying around Netbooks with
Windows 7.  As an aside I am running Windows 7 at home (on the only
Windows machine I own actually) and it can still be made to bring my AMD
FX-60 to its knees.  That sidebar is a memory and CPU hog.  To be fair
KDE 4.2 can also bring my machine to its knees.
