Linux phobias are found in Zhongguancun

At noon on June 23, October 14, I wandered around the Zhongguancun Trade Center in Beijing to find some traces of Linux. What is the situation?

There is no doubt that the IT Hypermarket in Zhongguancun, Beijing, is the first-class store in China. The store building is absolutely luxurious and the decoration is "5 stars ". Entering the hypermarket, shopping guides sell customers everywhere, and the sales promotion is very strong. I did not care about these places a few years ago and almost never went in. Now, this type of big store has become one of my favorite places ). The general impression is that, compared with large malls, the electronic devices here are very cheap and cheap, and almost no money. The desktop is gorgeous, the display is big and exquisite, and it is very attractive. Branded desktops 3 ~ You can buy one for yuan. A laptop with too many colors. Every time I went to a computer store, I had to ask: do I have a Linux computer? The salesman always looked embarrassed and changed his topic and said to me, "We have a fast shipment of this machine. Let's take a look ." Needless to say, it is a Vista machine (computer ). Lenovo, Dell, HP, Haier, founder, Tongfang ,......, desktops and laptops are the same, and there is no trace of Linux at all. Almost all of them are sold as Vista computers, some of which are pre-installed with XP. I am helpless. As a result, I went to the Asus store and checked out the famous "Easy PC". I thought that I could see a trace of Linux! What do you guess? In the Asus store, an "Easy PC" computer is placed in the most prominent place in the door, the price is not low, more than 3,200 yuan a, but its display is dark, there is no power! I asked the salesman there, is it Linux? The answer is, "We have removed it (Linux). We can install XP for you ." I asked again, why is it removed? The answer is, "This is a strange thing that customers don't like ." This left me disappointed. I turned around and went away. I could not say thank you!

After I went home, I was puzzled. Are we all Chinese people suffering from "Linux Phobia", so we are so resistant to Linux? If I buy an "Easy PC" computer, I don't want it to have a special operating system? Linux in China ~ In the past eight years, there was no one on the market. Why? Some people use pirated XP, and they know that the piracy is not correct, that is, they do not use "domestic Linux ". Can this fully blame users?

Considering the foreign situation, the global financial crisis has led to a slump, and people's desire to buy has been greatly reduced. Unexpectedly, Google's Android phone was sold out in less than a month after it was launched. In fact, Google's Android is Linux (small release )! At present, all world-class PC manufacturers are preparing for the "ubuntu computer" to meet the good time of shipment at the end of this year. Today, everyone knows that during the recession, Ubuntu is pre-installed
8.10 (contains ooo
3.0) is a good selling point. At that time, Zhongguancun's "Linux phobias" will not be cured. Based on a variety of actual factors, the majority of users do not actually care about what operating systems to use, as long as it is easy to use. What suffers from "Linux phobia" is the shopkeepers of hypermarket. They are all thinking about "How to make a fortune" (making a fortune for users ). In their view, Linux is free and there is no business opportunity in it. I am very sorry for those computer salesmen who have been confused all day and have become a helper of Vista.
