The tomato is down. Is linux spring coming?

The tomato is down. Is linux spring coming? -- Linux general technology-Linux technology and application information. For details, refer to the following section. (Author/ron_law) since the tomato was hit, it marks that Microsoft has already cracked down on piracy. Many linux enthusiasts think it is an opportunity for linux to eat a portion of windows on the desktop.

I think there are several reasons for this: 1. because of their passion for linux, we do not want a windows family to be the only one on the subjective wish level. We also want to win back a market share of our beloved linux, therefore, such an "positive" message is a wishful thinking. 2. computer players in China are excited, and everyone does not mean to spend too much money on software. Compared with the skyprice windows and other Microsoft software, linux is very attractive to us.

However, I have a conservative attitude towards the rise of Desktop linux.

Microsoft's strategy is very simple. In one sentence, it is to use piracy to help him occupy the market. After everyone gets addicted, let everyone bury their bills. Although it is so simple, it is sinister and correct.

Currently, most software is available only for windows, but not for linux. Many companies have spent money to help them develop a series of software systems that may have been running stably for a period of time and are constantly investing and updating. If you want to port all of this to linux, the cost is definitely not a small amount. Compared with this amount, the cost of windows authorization is obviously much cheaper! All companies and enterprises, like Microsoft, aim for profit, and reduce costs is something they will definitely consider. They spend tens or even millions of dollars to re-port software and spend money to buy windows licenses, guess how they choose. At this level, Microsoft won.

Let's look at common users. First, let's take a look at what average computer users do with their computers.

There is no doubt that you should first access the internet. Without IE, linuxer has many options. However, firefox is the most representative. With powerful firefox support, linux is not an absolute disadvantage in Web browsing. After all, IE is not very easy to use. Even on windows platforms, firefox is gradually encroaching on IE's market. Firefox can basically meet the needs of surfing the Internet. The only thing I regret is that it does not support online banking.

Followed by qq. The first reaction after linux installation is to install qq. But how much does qq support linux? Eva is fine, but it is not official after all. The official QQ can be described as "original. Despite the fact that the majority of linux fans were excited when they first came out, the functionality was poor, and the subsequent versions failed to arrive on schedule, which severely affected the linux fans. Even chat tools are like this, and QQ games that many people care about are even more out of sight.

Then the game. Many people think of computers as game consoles. They buy computers to play games. However, linux has very poor support for games, And there is basically no linux version for games on the market. Some people may say that wine can be used, but those who have used it all know that wine is prone to errors even when using qq. using it to run online games such as Warcraft is a great deal of time. In this case, will gamers and Internet cafes choose linux?

Finally, let's talk about ease of use. In fact, there is nothing to talk about. windows just eats this pot of food. I am very responsible for saying that today's Microsoft will not be available without ease of use. In contrast, linux is unfriendly. Command Line is required. It is undeniable that the command line in linux is quite powerful, but for general users, the command line is too unfriendly and difficult to use. He is like a mighty swift horse, and only a handful of people can control it. At least my mom will never use the command line.

From the indications, Microsoft's strategy is correct. We are already addicted to windows and are very addicted to it. Although it is not impossible to quit, it is difficult for me ......
