Dell has announced on its blog that it will evaluate the Chrome OS and the Moblin for future use in its products. These OS are more cost effective and resource intensive as compared to Windows. Dell is most likely to integrate the Linux-based Moblin OS in its ultra portable computing devices.
The Moblin OS is more suitable as it very cost effective and suitable for devices with small screen size. Chrome OS is less resource intensive as compared to Windows as it uses more Internet based apps.
These OS will allow Dell products to boot quickly and include network connectivity manager features. Moblin may come to Dell products before Chrome OS as it is set to release in 2010 and Dell is already in talks with Intel to integrate Moblin in its products.
