Dell looks to Moblin for Linux future
,----[ Quote ]
| In a recent blog posting, Dell Technology Strategist, Doug Anson, said that
| Dell, as I wrote last week, was considering selling Google's new Chrome OS in
| its netbooks. That's interesting, but what I found far more interesting was
| that Anson seemed a lot more interest in Moblin, the new mobile Internet
| device, operating system for Dell.
|
| Anson opened by talking about Google Chrome OS. He wrote, "Given that Google
| has made it clear that the Chrome OS will be available in the second half of
| 2010, there's still a lot of time to see how this will develop. As with most
| new technology, Dell plans to evaluate the Chrome OS and other alternative
| operating environments, like we've done in the past. Luckily (for me!), Dell
| enjoys a great relationship with Google. As we have more details to share on
| the topic, we'll do it here."

Dell: Chrome is one of many Linux-based OSes
,----[ Quote ]
| Although Dell didn't have much to say about Google's Chrome OS announcement
| last week, the PC maker is apparently looking closely at it.
|
| But for Dell--which was not listed as one of the PC makers working with
| Google on Chrome OS--it is just one of a number of Linux-based operating
| systems it is evaluating.

,----[ Quote ]
| Dell attributes part of the Linux growth to competitive pricing on the Ubuntu
| SKUs. “When you look at the sweet spot for this category it is price
| sensitivity, and Linux enabled us to offer a lower price entry point,” added
