Linux vs Windows - Conquering a Windows Based World

Linux is still gaining ground despite Microsoft efforts. In order to stay competitive Motorola has realized the product development has to move quickly, and that Linux provides the vehicle to do this, in fact all of their advanced technology development is done on Linux says Mark VandenBrink, a Motorola fellow and chief architect of systems software at the company.

“At Motorola, 60% of its phones are built on a Linux platform, but it is just one of the companies embracing Linux as a way to build handsets, run servers and desktop computers and deliver other technology.”

I guess someone should send them to the Microsoft get the facts site, so they can learn that they are completely wrong by doing this. Who are you going to believe?

Motorola will soon be offering the RIZR Z6 Phone with Linux OS rather than the Microsoft OS for which is was originally developed.

“This shows that Linux is making significant improvements in its suitability to be an operating system for mobile devices, and could give Motorola a significant headstart in the battle to create low power, low cost smartphones. “
