Jolicloud runs on Dell Inspiron Duo

A Dell Inspiron Duo was recently caught running the Jolicloud operating system, as this Linux-based OS that was originally meant for netbooks has been proven to run on a convertible tablet model as well. Of course, it goes without saying that the 1.5GHz Intel Atom dual core processor that runs proceedings from within are more than enough to keep things going at a pretty smooth rate, while its 10-inch, 1366 x 768 pixel capacitive touchscreen display should be more than enough for the average person to work with it. Optimized to play nice with Intel Atom processors, this OS concentrates primarily on Web browsing and Web-based apps, but it isn’t fully tweaked to work with a touchscreen device just yet.

Dell: Dell Inc. is one of largest technology corporations in the world. Michael Dell started the company in 1984, and it sold computers built from stock components. Previously named PCs Limited, the company created the "Turbo PC," the company's first computer. In 1988, the company changed its name to Dell Computer Corporation. Dell sells personal computers, servers, data storage devices, network switches, software, and computer peripherals. Dell acquired computer hardware company Alienware in 2006, and Perot Systems, an information technology services provider, in 2009.
