Segundo Jim Zemlin o director executivo da Fundação Linux, o ano de 2009 será THE YEAR, agora é que é, do GNU/Linux nos dekstops e laptops.
E o que conduz a isto?
Fast Boot! Arrancar o seu desktop ou laptop em segundos, já se conseguiu fazê-lo em 5 segundos apenas.
E quais são as tecnologias que irão estar envolvidas nessa estratégia?
- DeviceVM Splashtop, said to be used by H.P., Lenovo, and Asus, making it the leading fast-boot environment
- H.P.’s “Instant On,” described as “Splashtop in disguise”
- Dell Latitude On, which actually runs MontaVista Linux on a separate ARM-based smartphone processor
- Lenovo — also a Splashtop user, reportedly
- Phoenix
HyperSpace, reportedly set to ship in January, it is said to boot
quickly into Linux, while Windows loads in the background. After that,
either environment can be used, with the same files, reportedly.
