More PC are moving to Linux than Windows

There are more and more development currently been done by the major IT vendor example HP, DELL, Asus, ACER and etc which try to move away from Microsoft Windows to Linux due to the slow boot. The next version of notebook or PC are targeting for fast boot with minimum functionaties such as web browsers, email client and etc. In stead of booting like a windows machine today, you will not able to start the entire machine with less than 30 seconds. These group of ppl are targeting to get the entire machine ready with less than 30 seconds and they also trying to switch to the lower cost computer chips which is outsite of Intel and AMD both.

The software to allow this happen is Splashtop which develop by Silicon Valley company DeviceVM. The software would run on a separate ARM processor, instead of the main CPU from Intel and AMD. Thie provide more optional choices for the vendor world instead of a fix and limited choices they could make. With these approach, we should able to see more linux devices from time to time on the netbook, laptops, mobile devices and etc. Stay tune and cheer for Linux
