Operating systems battle over netbooks

Anyone who has even just looked into buying a netbook will realise that unlike laptops, these smaller and devices that are more mobile have one thing in common; no operating system dominates the market.

This can be confusing for some people who are not up to speed with the changes and choices in operating systems, but for the more experienced computer user this choice in operating system could not have come a better time.

Now it seems that consumers will be able to choose which operating system powers their netbook, rather than having just one brand forced upon them. This means that competition should be heating up which is good for computer user everywhere.
