Jerry Kurtze highlights some of the most important changes you need to make to a stock XP build on a small screen.
Does anyone know what the XP Overlay UI is?

@chippy http://bit.ly/2rpQMs interesting but leaves me hanging … what were the XP optimizations?
Jerry, what exactly were your XP UI optimizations? This is the first part of your video, before you transitioned to tethering with your Blackberry.
i think something similar showed up in relation to those intel classmate computers…

I finally found out that the user interface is called blue dolphin see the following link http://tech4teaching.org/wpblog/?p=443
Where to download the blue dolphin UI?
I’m assuming the same goes for the X70. I wonder how well this works for Windows 7
Here’s another web page with info on Blue Dolphin:

It looks like this was made for Intel’s use (and Jerry is an Intel employee), so the general public may never have access to it.
When I got my X70 a month ago, I wasn’t happy with the Cube UI, so I ended up installing Fences:

As a finger-friendly launcher, it suits my needs.
He left out the – IMHO – single most useful optimisation, which is the Grab-and-Drag firefox add-on, which makes firefox behave like the finger friendly (touch) mobile browsers : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1250
