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 getting all the limelight for something which is still on its way for the users.
With everyone introducing their own Application store, Intel too is contemplating to join the club. Yes, you read it right. Intel is soon going to come out with its App store for netbooks. In last few years a lot of avenues had started 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 initially started out only in UK, and later broadened its App store to the global market), Android, and Nokia. But even if Intel is out with their App store, it is not going to have 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 that can be downloaded.
Take A Brief Look Into the Intel App Store:
Intel seems to be following Apple. Like Apple, Intel will also give 70% of the total revenue to the developers. And Intel’s App would be compatible with Intel’s Moblin or Win 7.
bring 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 wrong. But yes, Intel’s target audiences are different from 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 those many softwares.
