Ryan Peters: Intel's universal R and D shift

,----[ Quote ]
| The best way to accomplish this is using none other than 
| Linux's open source platform. Intel's version is called 
| Moblin, aka Intel's Linux Development Community.
| 
| Intel, the world's largest chip maker, reaffirmed the 
| industry's direction toward open source development last 
| month at Intel's Annual Developer Forum in San 
| Francisco, Calif.

Why Microsoft won't fight moblin

,----[ Quote ]
| Moblin is the solution to the problem of Intel:
| providing a free, lightweight and powerful OS to sell
| cheaper netbooks and devices. This allows Microsoft to
| get out of the "bargain basement OS" market and to
| focus on a more expensive, higher end market with
| Windows 7. The differentiation between both OS is
| large enough to ensure that most people won't buy a
| Moblin device to replace their computer but to
| complement it. It suits Microsoft better if consumer
| purchase a Windows 7 desktop AND a Moblin netbook than
| if their purchase only a cheap Windows XP netbook.
