On April 9, February 3, Tuxradar.com announced a test result. In fact, this test is a big competition between Windows 7 (Beta) and Ubuntu 8.10. As a result, Windows 7 (Beta) is no better than Ubuntu. (Note: Here, "loss" means failure ). What is the problem?

The test results show that Windows 7 is much slower than Vista, but it is much slower than Ubuntu. The overall impression is that Windows 7 is similar to Vista. It should be noted that there are several versions of Windows 7, including Starter, Home Premium, Professional, and Ultinate, among which Ultimate (advanced) is the most powerful, it is also the most expensive (it is said that a set of 319.95 US dollars ). In this test, the Ultimate version will be used for a comparison with Ubuntu. For details, see the test report: Benchmarked: Ubuntu vs Vista vs Windows 7 (Richard benchmark Test) published on www.tuxradar.com on April 9 ). The test results show that Ubuntu is better than Windows 7 in many aspects (originally outperforms). For example, Ubuntu occupies much smaller hard disk space than Windows 7, reading and Writing files are much faster, and the installation time is much shorter. These three "small, fast, and short" repeatedly beat Windows 7. As a result, Windows 7 is on the ground, as the audience stood up, the audience applauded and some cheered.

The main test results are as follows: (The/x86 version is used as an example)

System installation time installation press Key times copy file time hard disk space

Ubuntu 8.10/x86: 903 seconds 7 times 11.3 seconds 2.2 GB

Windows 7/x86: 1393 seconds 14 times 89.8 seconds 7.9 GB

It can be seen that the root cause of the problem is that Windows 7 is too obese (3 times as high as Ubuntu ). In boxing, it is rare for a small head to beat a large head.

In February 5, Christopher Tozzi commented that in the "mini-book" market, Windows 7 beat Ubuntu. For example, Dell's "mini-book" mini 9 has only 4 GB hard disk space, ubuntu is easy to install, but Windows 7 cannot be installed.

Recently, many people have been advocating that Microsoft can quickly release Windows 7 to completely shut down Linux. I don't have to worry so much about Windows 7, but I still have to keep slimming down and hone my skills in order to fight against Linux (last.

February 6, a German website, www.windows-secrets.de revealed a business secret: Windows 7 quotes, the matter can put Microsoft angry. Until now (a.m. on June 18), Microsoft closed its remarks on the quotation. However, the quotation is true or false, and it does not matter. However, at least one thing can be confirmed: the quotation for Windows 7 is basically the same as that for Vista. According to a recent large (survey sample of 6,819 people) survey (see Ubuntu shops believe in Ubuntu in February 6), in Europe and North America, ubuntu applications have been frequently used in enterprise applications, but the price of Ubuntu (itself) remains strictly zero. What should Microsoft do? On February 23, February 6, Glyn moody published an article entitled "Proof that Microsoft now fears for the desktop", which references instructions for Microsoft's recruitment, it indicates that Microsoft is planning to hire an "open source desktop" strategy owner, which shows that Microsoft is very worried about the development strategy of "desktop" (that is, "fears for the desktop. In this regard, it is obvious that Ubuntu is the opposite of Microsoft. For Ubuntu, the higher the price of Windows 7, the lower the price of Ubuntu (actually zero). When you enter a high-end store, I will spread the stalls to see who is afraid of who?
