Intel Atom should be careful. ARM and Canonical, the commercial guest of Ubuntu Linux, jointly announced today that the two companies will cooperate to port the Ubuntu operating system to the ARMv7 architecture platform, it mainly targets NetBook netbooks and small desktop markets.

The ARM Ubuntu operating system will have all the features of the x86 version, supporting ARMv architecture processor including ARM Cortex-A8 and Cortex-A9. ARM said NetBook, which uses the ARM processor, will take advantage of battery endurance and video playback performance in the future. With guaranteed performance, the ARM core NetBook can be battery for a whole day and supports HD video playback.

In terms of configuration, the design of the ARM architecture notebook may be similar to the existing Atom platform product. The screen size is between 8.9 and 10. Thanks to the wide application of ARM processors on smartphones, these laptops also have a lot of room for expansion and connectivity. In addition, mobile operators are also very interested in the NetBook market, and many of these operators are old customers of ARM.

The Ubuntu System of the ARM architecture version is expected to be officially released in next April, which may be the release date of the ARM core NetBook or Nettop.
