Linux and mortgages the world is changing.
The Vancouver mortgage market has changed dramatically. The use of Linux based machines has increased the speed of transaction processing.
We want to become the primary source of information on Linux and VIA’s EPIA mainboard series as used in the mortgage business.
Those who assure us that Linux has no future on netbooks and that Windows 7 will dominate, such as Preston Galla of Computerworld, assume that Intel processors will continue to dominate the netbook market. The problem with making that assumption is that there are real advantages to ARM processors, specifically very low power consumption, which allows for much longer battery life than similar Intel Atom or Via C7-M processors. Galla quotes Matt Kohut of Lenovo who sees netbooks becoming larger and more powerful, more like standard notebooks.
