Samsung ND10 missing an operating system

on 08/13/2009, filed in Home > Computers

The Samsung ND10 is more or less similar to the NC10, but this model has been spotted in China without any operating system attached to it alongside a $50 discount. Underneath the hood you will still find a similar 10.2″ display, an Intel Atom N270 processor alongside all the other regular niceties. Makes us wonder just what kind of operating system would suit such a device – will it be Moblin, Android, or perhaps even Google Chrome OS if Windows is not the mover of choice? This netbook will be available in China only and doesn’t look likely that it will be exported anywhere else.

Android: Android is the mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license. You can follow Ubergizmo on Android with Google Currents.

Samsung: Samsung is a South-Korean conglomerate which counts many subsidiaries like Samsung Electronics, which you probably know very well, but also Samsung Heavy Industries which builds ships, or Samsung Life Insurance, Samsung Securities and many more. Samsung is responsible for an amazing 20% of South Korea's exports. In the consumer electronics world, Samsung has gone from being a company with a reputation for cheap products to becoming one of the most respected companies in the world.
