Lenovo: Linux in the netbook market will be lost to Windows 7

Lenovo, a technical director recently said that Windows 7 improvements in many aspects make Linux's advantage in the notebook market no longer prominent, but Lenovo will still consider including Google has not released Other optional operating systems, including Chrome OS.

Locker is talking about two models for the education market launched in October 2008: "Our S9 and S10 netbooks use Linux, but they all perform poorly, so we have decided to stop. Selling these two models." Apple's iTunes does not support Linux clients, which makes many Lenovo users very upset. Locker said: "People didn't realize what they were buying, but then found that they needed Windows and would return the goods."

Locker said that Windows 7 performs very well, which greatly undermines the system's optionality. Linux is time to make significant improvements. Windows 7 is very suitable for netbooks. It has been greatly improved compared to previous Windows, such as 10 seconds startup time, 1 second reboot time, better sleep mode, lower power consumption, user interface improvements such as Support for multi-touch and more.

Despite this, Lenovo has provided Google with a lot of suggestions for Chrome OS design, and will consider using this software. "We will pay attention to it, but it is still too early to talk about this because they have not started yet. Initial alpha code test."
