Intel's Moblin 2.0 boosts Atom-based netbooks
InternetNews | at | by Mike
Intel has released a beta of Moblin 2.0, its Linux operating system distribution designed and tuned specifically for the Atom processor. This update adds a new interface, the result of an acquisition, and specific Atom tuning.
The release comes on the heels of news Intel plans to release new Atom processors later this year. Not much has been discussed about the next version of Atom, developed under the codename "Pine View," but Intel will disclose more information at next month's giant Computex computer trade show in Taiwan. The current line already has received kudos for its lower power and compact design.
