Okay, it’s an open question as to whether Jolicloud, the Linux/Ubuntu distro is the best OS for a netbook out there, but Dale Dougherty makes a pretty good case for it in the article at the link.
Conceived as a “internet operating system” and flavored by the Prism project from Mozilla Labs, with Jolicloud websites can function like desktop applications, and you can make use of cloud-based services for data storage. Let’s call it an alternative to Windows 7, a different kind of netbook OS. So what do you think: is the way forward for netbooks to completely re-think the way that websites are treated by the OS, and is the cloud sufficient to address our data storage needs?
