Linpus Plans On Rolling Out Moblin For Netbooks

// May 28th, 2009 // Free Software

This week there’s been lots of interest in Moblin at the Ubuntu Developer Summit. It surely is very shiny and flashy, and I’m sure it will make a big impact on the mobile world when it is ready for mass consumption.

According to Engadget, Linpus Linux, which is distributed on Acer Aspire One netbooks, is working on a Moblin desktop for netbooks. I would actually expect Ubuntu do be the first distribution to do this, but from what I heard Moblin is really just not ready yet. Perhaps something to consider in the Karmic+1 release cycle?
