Linux changing the world more rapidly
-------------------------------------
Linux has changed the world rapidly. And its changing even faster than ever before.
Something is happening in the PC market.
Japan sees 25% drop in PC sales.
The rest of the world has seen 10% per year and acclerating.
Everyone is moving to super fast phablets as their window into the world around them.
Minimum 8 core phablet with 2GB RAM with 32GB eMMC, 2048*1536 is probably the low spec machines by end of this year. By this time next year, all of those machines will have doubled in features and sport 64 bit.
They are going to need a large variety of Linux distro to fill the niche being opened up for them to maximimise sales.
Ubuntu comes to mind, but all Linux distros can run efficiently on 2GB RAM
8 core and 32 GB eMMC. So there should be nothing stopping the mad race to port all distros to high definition phablets. I think if the China hardware vendors want more sales, they should actively seek out help with ports of Linux to phablets and then they can own the new desktop space by bringing out numerous application software, or just enabling the existing ones into the new tablets to get massive mega sales volume orders.
