Wasn't this story already flagged as inaccurate on Digg?
Cause we all know Digg is an accurate source of reality.

You are correct though it was actually 2 minutes into day two when the contestants could have some interaction with the computers (i.e. browsing to webpages).

The Vista laptop was cracked 7 hours into day 3 when the laptops were installed with "popular" 3rd party software. If I remember correctly it was a flaw in Flash that was exploited.

The Ubunutu Linux laptop had not cracked at the end of the competition.
