Ubuntu accused Microsoft of ignoring the comments of Linuxnetbook

Article Title: Ubuntu accused Microsoft of ignoring the comments of Linuxnetbook. 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.

Brandon LeBlanc, a member of Microsoft's Windows 7 Technical Team, recently claimed that Microsoft has ruled the netbook field. Perhaps we should say that his statement is exaggerated, and some may even want to attack him, but Chris Kenyon, the Business Development Department Manager of Canonical, A Ubuntu sponsoring company, takes the lead. LaBlanc once said publicly that almost all netbooks sold today use Windows systems.

This is not the case. He cited the NPD Sales Survey Report, but NPD only focuses on real sales in the U.S. market, which does not represent the overall sales data. Have you noticed how many Linux Netbooks are sold on Best Buy? In addition, Kenyon pointed out that when users face computers of the same hardware level, 1/3 of users will choose Ubuntu instead of XP.

He also talked about Dell Mini 9, one of the best netbooks. In addition, Jay Lyman, an analyst from 451 Group, pointed out that when you take NPD data out of the U.S. and retail markets, there are other problems. First, the United States only occupies about 20% of the netbook market, and second, the global market share of Linux still occupies 30%.

In addition, Kenyon noticed that some Linux details are the opposite of what LaBlanc implies. Linux already supports a large number of devices: "Ubuntu and most Linux distributions support over 3000 printers, 1000 digital cameras, and 200 cameras. In addition, you do not need to search for a driver on the website or install the driver from the CD. You only need to insert and run the driver ."

Microsoft also pointed out that the return rate of Linux netbook was 4 times higher than that of Windows netbook. Kenyon denies this: "(Microsoft) has repeatedly reiterated that we (Canonical)" confirm that "Linux netbook return rate is 4 times that of XP is unfounded, this is not a big company like Microsoft."

Kenyon finally said: "We keep moving forward and continue to bring excellent products to users. We are not saying that Ubuntu should be selected all over the world, but we believe that customers will definitely not like Linux as Microsoft, simply rely on beautiful data to move on."
