Commentary: Taiwan notebook players sound off on Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| OEMs, on the other hand, noted it is less costly to produce
| Linux-based notebooks and demand at the lower end of the market
| is worth developing. And while the authorization fees for Windows
| entry-level education OS edition in undeveloped countries are
| around US$40, those for Linux OS are nearly free, the OEMs noted.
| Therefore, the OEMs say they are optimistic about the opportunities
| a shift to Linux-based notebooks presents.
