New Ubuntu OS: easier to use

According to Ubuntu, after re-design and continuous improvement, the new version is faster in terms of operation speed and 3G broadband connections are improved, the purpose of the upgrade is to make the product the most easy-to-use operating system. This is similar to Microsoft Windows 7's slogan "computer is so simple", focusing on simple cards.

Google Chrome OS: New Opportunities for Linux

Microsoft launched its latest operating system Windows 7 in October 22, and on the eve of its release, Canonical joined IBM to launch an office suite Based on the Ubuntu operating system and cloud computing, IBM will pre-install Ubuntu on some machines. The industry interprets this move as a challenge for Windows 7 operating systems by IBM and Ubuntu.

However, the power of both sides of the operating system war is very disparity, and the road to Linux popularity is always difficult. In this regard, Yu liqiang, chief representative of Ubuntu China, said frankly that Windows operating systems are doing very well in the industry chain. Currently, Linux is not very popular around the world, the support of software vendors is also quite weak.

However, based on the strong idea, Linux has a new opportunity: Google Chrome OS.

No matter what the field is, Google is a competitor that cannot be underestimated. The addition of Google brings variables to Linux vendors such as Ubuntu. "Google pushes Chrome OS, in my opinion, there are advantages and disadvantages," Yu liqiang said. "But it must be a larger advantage than a disadvantage ."

Yu liqiang explained that Google's participation has indeed brought a strong competitor to Linux vendors, but from another perspective, it has also become a great opportunity to expand the Linux industry chain. "After Google joins the industry chain, it will reconsider its support for Linux ." Yu liqiang said that if the entire market is done, the cake will become bigger, even if the market share of Ubuntu is reduced, it will also get more users and income than before.
