Linux: this year's silver lining?

| 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.
