No es ninguna sorpresa que los netbooks están proliferando. Es un mercado apetitoso y parece que todos quieren su parte del pastel.
Me he encontrado con un proyecto llamado “Moblin”. Se trata de una adaptación de GNU/Linux para netbooks con procesadores Intel Atom.
Lo interesante es que la interfaz gráfica me parece realmente buena. Os dejo un vídeo para que juzguéis por vosotros mismos:
La transcripción (la he hecho yo, así que no os fiéis mucho):
Welcome to Moblin version 2.0 for net-books. Moblin is a completely new user experience. With integrated Web Browser and Media Player and lot of really clever features, Moblin makes easy for you to work and play.
This is the “M-Zone”, it’s what you see when you start your net-book. The “M-Zone” gives you instant access to your calendar, tasks, and appointments. Your favourite applications, recently used files and latest updates from your friends.
You can also get around your net-book using the Moblin toolbar which hides at the top of the screen until you needed. With the Moblin toolbar you can quickly select the tools you need to get home with your life. You can update your social networks with the unique status feature. Or get in touch with one of your friends by email or instant messaging.
Moblin features are unique Internet Browser which has sort cuts to your recently visited and most used sites, and makes searching really simple.
The Mobile Media Player stores all your music, movies and photos in one place, and automagic search box helps your find your favourites. And Moblin also allows you to access files from other sources.
Moblin has been specifically designed for any net-book with an Intel Atom processor. Moblin is efficient and optimised for net-book screen sizes. This means longer battery life, faster started time and mostly important more UI time.
Moblin is the next evolution in Operating System, making it natural selection for your net-book.
