Shuttleworth: Don’t Give Up the Linux Desktop

“”We definitely shouldn’t give up the desktop,” Shuttleworth
said. “This is one of the most exciting years for the desktop in
living memory.”

“Shuttleworth added that the Intel-led Moblin effort and
Google’s mobile Linux initiatives with Android and ChromeOS have
generated considerable interest in Linux.

“Canonical-backed Ubuntu, for its part, has a Moblin-based
netbook remix.

“While the interest is there, Shuttleworth noted that some key
areas need to be improved about the way Linux is developed and
presented to users.”
