Why you should use linux as your Netbook OS ? Part 1



Many people claim that Microsoft has been dominating the Netbook market with Windows Xp , but in fact linux is the best choice for netbook users . So why linux must be your netbook os ?


1_ Netbook hardware is the perfect match for linux :   



People say that you can't play games on linux , but they ignored the fact that you can't play games on a Netbook , surfing is the major role of this technology ,and this is what make it distinguishing .

2_All about the interface :

As you grasp , all netbooks offer a small screen , so you need a desktop interface that fits this real estate . The Eeebunutu offer Remix desktop interface that is perfectly suited for your desktop size .

3_Netbooks require a secure OS :

windows XP users suffer from real threats like virus , spywares and Trojans , and if we project that to your netbook you will need a powerful antivirus , but your netbook performance can't support an antivirus like Norton . In the other side , none can deny the fact that Linux is a secure OS that offers the maximum security .

4_ Your netbook can be more than a slow laptop :

when you use Eeebuntu you feel like you have the performance of a full laptop , you can even install a full blown LAMP server on your netbook if you like .

5_ linux keep your cost down :

the cheap price of netbooks make it more and more popular , you can find a netbook under 300$ , but 200$ will be reached when computer companies release it with a Linux OS . don't forget that Linux is an open source , that mean that you can install it for free .

I also like the Ubuntu netbook remix. I feel like that these netbooks are targeted to people who don't have a lot of money to spend, and often times, they are not techsavvy enough to figure out another operating system. They will be like: "How do you install stuff? Why isn't this exe file not opening etc." That's why Windows is still dominating, because the mass majority of people are more likely to be like: "Oh! it's windows , I know it."
