CES: PCs Load Apps Even Before Windows Starts
,----[ Quote ]
| HyperSpace and Windows can't run at the same time, but HyperSpace could still
| act just like new quick start options from Lenovo and Sony, which load a
| small subset of applications into a Linux-based environment for the times
| when a user doesn't need the full firepower of Windows and Windows apps.

Linux: this year's silver lining?
,----[ Quote ]
| The key word in that sentence is "new". Like many watching the PC business,
| Zemlin thinks 2009 will be a year when netbooks really take off, and Linux is
| doing well on these platforms. "Linux is taking share from Windows in this
| new playing field, and we think Linux will be the dominant platform for
| netbooks," explained Zemlin. He added that Microsoft has been forced to
| extend the life of Windows XP and move up the launch of Windows 7 as many
| consumers and corporations have ignored Windows Vista.

| The open-source Linux operating system costs less (as in
| zero) and provides far better security. And as it's set up
| on the Acer, Asus and Dell, it features all the basic tools
| you might need: the Firefox browser, music and photo tools,
| and the Microsoft-compatible OpenOffice productivity suite.
