Lenovo or No, Linux Not There Yet

August 7th, 2007 by admin

With Mondays news that it will bundle Linux on laptops, Lenovo becomes the second major PC maker to offer the open-source operating system on consumer PCs. But though the move is a boost for the OS, analysts say itll be years before desktop Linux can seriously threaten proprietary systems like Windows.

Its still very early stages, 451 Group analyst Raven Zachary said when asked about the No. 3 PC makers decision to sell its ThinkPad notebooks preloaded with Novells SUSE version of Linux. In terms of elegance and aesthetics, Microsoft and Apple are many years ahead of Linux.

For the scrappy OS to truly trespass on territory long held by Windows and the Mac OS, commercial Linux distributors such as Novell, Ubuntu, and Red Hat would have to place engineers and designers on their payroll, Mr. Zachary suggested.

Apple and Microsoft have the advantage of having usability engineers and designers on staff and working on a single initiative, he said.
