We know that two years ago, Dell began selling Ubuntu computers. Today, the situation has changed. Windows 7 is coming soon. Will Dell sell Ubuntu computers? This is an interesting question.

Rumors are often useful in malls. People like to hear gossip. Recently, it is rumored that Dell will no longer sell Ubuntu computers. In fact, this is not the case. Recently, Dell spokesman Anne Camden came forward to clarify the facts. She said: "We are upgrading and transforming desktop computers, and Ubuntu computers will continue to be sold ." Rumors are not self-defeating. Dell is very resolute in selling Ubuntu computers, affecting many other PC manufacturers. Ubuntu is good, bad, not self-blown. Installing Ubuntu on a Dell Computer is a powerful proof.

In Beijing Zhongguancun computer store, Dell's Ubuntu computers were replaced with XP. The main reason is that users do not know the goods. On the other hand, we cannot deny that there are no well-known Ubuntu technical support vendors in China. I once asked the Shenzhen Wubuntu system integration company if they are interested or have plans to do something in this regard. The answer they gave me was that it was only after the company's website was officially opened. Let's wait and see. As for whether users do not know the goods, whether they do not know the goods or false, you must first take the goods out (put on the counter) for the user to see and touch it with his own hands. The vendor assumes that replacing Ubuntu with XP in advance is totally unreasonable. Ubuntu is not a Chinese-made Linux, so there is no popularity. Dell chose Ubuntu, which naturally has some truth and rationale. Microsoft cannot lose its temper when Dell sells Ubuntu computers.

Recently, Google decided to create an operating system, and everyone was very excited. Google Chrome cannot find a suitable Linux release version if it wants to port it to the Linux platform. So Google decided to launch the attack in person. However, Google is not stupid. In this year, it has closed its doors to develop its own operating systems, just like Korean windows. Google learns how Intel is engaged in Moblin. First, it builds a basic framework named ChromeOS, stands on the ground, and then throws it out (that is, open source code ), let the Linux international community actively participate in the development of the Linux release version it requires. Note that ChromeOS is a Linux release, not something else. Since it is a Linux release, we do not reject the evolution of other Linux release branches. To be honest, almost all of Google's members (members of the Alliance) are ARM manufacturers, and Intel and Dell are not among them. In this case, Google will not affect Windows 7 (recently. However, Google's ChromeOS release is a good news for the Linux family, which will attract more hardware vendors around the Linux side and bring Linux out of the boudoir, show her beautiful posture. Dell is one of the early adopters of Linux.

I am constantly thinking about the question: why are people so comfortable using pirated XP? It seems that XP should have been so free to use it. Pirated XP is Microsoft's cheerleading team. Microsoft is very interested in this. Today, Google has made a public pursuit of Miss Linux, and the pirated XP cheerleading team should look back at it. Linux lady said, You are pirated XP, I don't want. Is that silly?
