Is Microsoft pricing itself out of the consumer market?

| Late October 2009 is proving to be an
| interesting time in the world of computer
| operating systems. Within the space of
| eight days we have seen Apple dramatically
| dropping their prices, Microsoft releasing
| Windows 7 and on Thursday 29 October
| Canonical will release Ubuntu "Karmic
| Koala" 9.10.

Ubuntu 9.10 Unleashed, Amid Windows 7 & Snow Leopard
,----[ Quote ]
| So, with this version does Ubuntu live up
| to itâs name of one of the most popular
| distributions? It certainly does and this
| version is certainly worth the upgrade for
| current Ubuntu users, especially those
| plagued by poor graphics drivers for Intel
| cards in the Jaunty release. There are 2
| things which really excite me with Ubuntu.
| First is that, after six months when the
| next Ubuntu version comes out, which will
| be an LTS, things look really good for
| Ubuntu. Many computer manufacturers like
| Dell will use it for their netbooks,
| laptops and desktops. And when the cheap
| ARM chips based net books finally come
| out, Linux will certainly be a very good
| competitor to the proprietary Operating
| systems. The second thing is that with
| this release Canonical has come up with
| some innovative plans to profit from
| Ubuntu. If they actually are able to make
| money off the Linux desktop, it will be
| nothing short of spectacular!
