Novell: Нетбуки повысят популярность Linux

Новая система, получившая название JeOS

Здесь нужно уточнение:

«JeOS is the abbreviation (pronounced «juice») for the concept of Just Enough Operating System as it applies to a software appliance.

JeOS is not a generic, one-size-fits-all operating system. Rather, it refers to a customized operating system that precisely fits the needs of a particular application. The application’s OS requirements can be determined manually, or with an analytical tool, such as rPath’s rBuilder.

Therefore, JeOS includes only the pieces of an operating system (often Linux) required to support a particular application and any other third-party components contained in the appliance. This makes the appliance smaller, and possibly more secure than an application running under a full general purpose OS.»
