The OS development alliance that officially kicked off earlier this March has drawn up plans to introduce a Chinese OS that will be made available to desktop machines by the time October rolls around, which is just a couple of months away, frankly speaking. The whole idea for this home grown operating system? It is to replace the existing desktop OS options, and they have targeted one or two years, tops, to “cull” the current desktop operating systems. Apart from that, they are also working on replacing the different mobile operating systems in a matter of three to five years.
What do you think of this particular effort from China? After all, the government has already banned Windows 8 from running on government computers, citing that it is ‘expensive‘ as well as being capable of ‘monitoring their users‘.
