A while ago Intel was in news for making the fastest Operating System, the LINUX based Moblin, which booted in just 2 seconds allowing no room for sleep modes and hibernating modes. And yet again Intel is taking attention for something which is on its way for the users.
With everybody bringing out their own Application store, Intel too is planning to join the club. Yes, you read it right. Intel is planning to come out with its Application store for netbooks. In last few years a lot of avenues had prepared their own App store. In fact service providers too have jumped into preparing their own Application store, Vodafone is one of those. Others in the list are - BlackBerry, Acer, Orange, Windows Mobile, Samsung (it first started out only in UK, and later extended its App store to the global market), Android, and Nokia. But even if Intel’s App Store is out, it is not going offer a big number of applications, not at least in near future. And definitely not like that of Apple App store which has around a billion applications for free download.
Take A Brief Look Into the Intel App Store:
It seems, Intel is copying Apple. Like Apple, Intel too would give 70% of the total to the developers. And it App would be work with with Intel’s Moblin or Win 7.
But will this App store {get Intel more sales?~So, the question is will Intel, like Apple, have profit from its App store}?
To say this with 100% surety would be misguiding. But yes, Intel’s target audiences are not same as Apple’s. And netbooks are totally a different thing. For iPhone market, App stores maximize the sales. Also, with Google Chrome OS out in the market, a lot of applications wouldn’t really be of use.
So now we will have Apps effect all over, apart from countless softwares.
