Article Title: from imitating to surpassing open-source "XP", is it possible to create a new miracle. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.
A long time ago, Yu Linmu Feng studio, which once focused on XP cracking, brought the new open-source operating system "Ylmf OS" back to the public.
At the end of the year ago, after the arrest of Hong Lei, the author of the Tomato Garden, Yu Linmu Feng, a team that once had been in comparison with the tomato garden and in depth, had to announce the dissolution, the industry's "three major XP piracy groups" came to an end. At that time, in addition to the "114 la" navigation URL, the Yulin Mufeng studio gradually fades out of sight. Now, the XP cracking team has become an open-source operating system development team. This reminds us that Yu linmufeng is not actually a so-called "real name survival", but it is only in the dark, turning to another direction. However, can Ylmf OS, which is a high-imitation XP product, create another brilliant version of XP?
First, we need to consider why Microsoft's pirated XP is so popular in China? There are two reasons:
1. XP is really useful, which is obvious from the failure of its successor Vista;
2. the price of XP is relatively high in China, and most people choose to use piracy. Yu Linmu Feng, a mature cracking technology, and Tomato Garden, have become the first choice for pirated users.
Therefore, simply put, performance and price have become the key to the rapid promotion of pirated XP. Now let's look back at the current Ylmf OS. although its interface is a good copy of XP, its core and XP are different. whether it can be compatible with most of the software on the market is the first problem, the stability of the system itself is also another major problem. it should be noted that XP has been tested for nearly 10 years and is a very mature work, since its development, "Ylmf OS" has inevitably had many bugs. people deny it, but it is a key factor.
From the perspective of price, there is no charge for open-source operating systems, so this is an advantage of "Ylmf OS". However, this advantage is not obvious in the context of the flood of piracy in China today. However, it does not mean that Ylmf OS will fail. Today, China's fight against piracy is intensifying. if the public cannot obtain a free windows system, it will switch to the open-source operating system, the usage habits of the existing linux operating system are mostly different from those of windows XP, which is a good news for Ylmf OS. I believe that Yulin Mufeng studio has seen this point, started to develop an open-source system similar to XP. However, in the future, if Microsoft can successfully occupy the market of genuine operating systems, it is estimated that the relationship between Ylmf OS and windows will be the same as the fate of WPS to catch up with MS Office.
However, no matter what the outcome is, we still wish the rain, because many of the successes started from imitation, and the road to domestic operating systems is still long. we hope to have a domestic operating system, breaking Microsoft's situation of "being imitated and never surpassed.
