Hands-on with Ubuntu's new Unity netbook shell
,----[ Quote ]
| During a keynote at the Ubuntu Developer
| Summit in Belgium, Ubuntu founder Mark
| Shuttleworth unveiled a new lightweight user
| interface shell called Unity. The new shell
| is designed to use screen space more
| efficiently and consume fewer system
| resources than a conventional desktop
| environment. It will be a key component of
| the Ubuntu Netbook Edition and a new instant-
| on computing platform called Ubuntu Light.

Unity, and Ubuntu Light
,----[ Quote ]
| The fruit of that R&D is both a new desktop
| experience codebase, called Unity, and a
| range of Light versions of Ubuntu, both
| netbook and desktop, that are optimised for
| dual-boot scenarios.

Netbooks are Alive and Well

| Most businesses would be very happy with
| 33% year over year growth in units shipped.
| The panic/hype that the iPad will somehow
| damage netbooks is silly. Lower the price
| and there will be new surge in salesâ Oh.
| You will have to dump that other OS to
| lower the price. Use GNU/Linux. It works
| better and costs less. Let the folks with
| too much cash buy the iPad. The rest of us
| will be able to afford two netbooks running
| GNU/Linux instead of one iPad. We can use
| one and give the other to a friend.
