According to Jeff Orr, an analyst at ABI Research, Linux-based netbooks will be close to one-third of the 35 million netbooks shipped this year or 11 million Linux netbooks, and Intel has been working with the Moblin community and other projects to make sure that these Linux netbooks run well on Intel architecture.

In this video from the Intel booth at OSCON, Paul Cooper, Moblin Apps and UI Engineering Manager at Intel, talks about the user experience on Moblin. The netbook as a mobile device with a smaller screen size, keyboard and trackpad provided particular challenges that had be considered when designing the user experience for Moblin.

You can read an interview with Paul for more details about the improvements they have made to the Moblin user experience, and we have many more open source videos on the multimedia page.
