liitle time 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 recent past a lot of players had prepared their own App store. In fact service providers too have gotten 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 to have a big number of applications, not at least in near future. And surely not like that of Apple App store which has around a billion applications for free download.
Take A Quick Look Into the Intel App Store:
It seems, Intel is following Apple. Like Apple, Intel too would give 70% of the total revenue to the developers. And Intel’s App would be work with with Intel’s Moblin or Win 7.
fetch Intel more sales?~So, the question is will Intel, like Apple, benefit from its App store}?
To say this with 100% surety would be wrong. 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 ready for public usage, a lot of applications wouldn’t really matter.
So now we will have Apps effect all over, apart from lot of softwares.
