手机变PC主机:Android手机将可运行系统Ubuntu

去年CES 2011前夕,摩托罗拉发布了旗下第一部能够与Webtop底座组合变成电脑的手机Atrix 4G,当时介绍称,Atrix 4G插上Webtop底座后,其输出到大屏幕的界面让用户能够拥有与桌面PC系统一样的体验。虽然这一理念至今没有得到广泛普及,但这并不意味着该理念会被放弃。

据国外媒体消息,近日,专注于Ubuntu系统开发的Canonical公司宣布,他们正在进行一个名为“Ubuntu for Android”的项目,主要为Android手机提供完美的嵌入式Ubuntu系统体验。Canonical称,该项目支持Ubuntu和Android系统在使用相同Linux内核的Android智能手机上运行,实现双系统启动且无缝切换。

用户只要将拥有Ubuntu for Android技术的手机通过HDMI外接显示器,切换至Ubuntu系统之后即可拥有纯正的PC系统体验。此外,Ubuntu for Android不仅可以让Android手机实现双系统切换,还允许安装和运行桌面Ubuntu系统的应用程序,甚至还可以全方位共享Android系统的应用程序和数据,包括网络设置、联系人、图片、视频和游戏等等。

Canonical介绍,要实现Ubuntu for Android功能,需要Android手机达到规定的最低硬件标准,包括:双核1GHz的处理器,512MB RAM,2GB支持Open GL,ES/EGL视频加速,支持HDMI视频输出。

外媒表示,虽然并不是每个拥有台式机或笔记本电脑的人都希望自己的手机能够拥有类PC体验,但对于经常出差商务人士却非常热衷这样一个解决方案。平时他们出门在外时,可以直接在手机上快速编辑文档,而当回到酒店房间,立即可以通过插上底座连接大屏幕预览,或者通过键盘鼠标继续编辑和修改。

最后Canonical还透露,他们即将在MWC 2012世界移动通信大会上展示该项目,不过Ubuntu for Android正式发布则需要等到2012年下半年,届时该技术将成为某些拥有强大多核心处理能力的高端手机的主要功能之一。

OS X Mountain Lion – One Week Later

When Apple announced Mac OS X – sorry, we don’t use the ‘Mac’ designation now, do we? – 10.8 Mountain Lion last week, we were all taken aback slightly. Well, all of us except the lucky few who found themselves summoned for a private briefing with Apple SVP Phil Schiller that is.
