Our fellow MuyComputerPRO

we report that, in collaboration with Intel, will offer administrators and ICT professionals the opportunity to try to scoop its new generation of professional tablets .

Any interested or interested in attending this event, which was held in Madrid (no date yet closed), just have to fill the form attached more down and have a bit of luck, as it is a presentation of limited capacity.

WPS Office, the office suite Ribbon interface. Would you like to try?

class=”article first_main_article” readability=”83″>We talked a while ago

Ubuntu Kylin, bet a Chinese national operating system, and in the same news we mentioned to WPS Office , an office suite that could also give China a lot to talk . We’ve tested. Do you want to try it you? Let it …

WPSO 1 500x358 WPS Office, the office suite Ribbon interface. Would you like to try?

The first is to thank a reader, Mariano Gaudix, information about WPS Office, it was he who last week warned us of its existence (in fact, below you can see a video shot by Mariano himself). Although we already knew to WPS, which has quite some Windows versions and later Android , where it is known as Kingsoft Office. Now develop the Linux version, which is in beta state (darling you could feed your pet!).

In short, WPS Office is an office suite that includes word processor , spreadsheet and presentations . It is focused on the Chinese market, with a great support language and different dialects of the region. That is by far his biggest handicap for the western user. Features include the Ribbon UI (although you can change), the style marked by Microsoft Office 2007, and they say, not what I have seen, great support Microsoft’s proprietary formats . In contrast, lacks support Open Document (ODF). As detailed, integrated with the Ubuntu global menu.

Test suite is available to anyone, for official website installers available in DEB and RPM of which at first can enforce users of Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora and openSUSE plus a generic installer to others. Yes, the program has only version of 32-bit , so that users of 64-bit systems have to install the appropriate libraries. And proprietary software (which does not have to be a negative, but it must be said).

WPSO 2 500x359 WPS Office, the office suite Ribbon interface. Would you like to try?

The first is to go

downloading WPS Office. Secondly, if your system is 64-bit, install the packages, which are called Ubuntu and derivatives ia32-libs in openSUSE patterns -openSUSE-32bit , both will find them in the repositories. With Fedora declare myself lost as to explain it, but I explain Xenode Systems for me. Once installed all … everything is in Chinese . According to the instructions given on the web, you can only translate into English (and not entirely, advancement), as follows, using terminal :

This eliminates some files that do not know what they are and to open any of the three applications that make up the suite, English will be the language used (take the opportunity to note that I’ve tested the suite on Linux Mint 13 Xfce without problem by following the detailed instructions, but I can ensure that everything goes well on other systems, so Actuat under your responsibility). Incidentally, you should also install the fonts owners Microsoft , if you want to have full compatibility (and that do not leave a message every time the application ejecutéis).

At this point, I have taken a look over at Kingsoft Writer, Kingsoft Presentation and Kingsoft Spreadsheet and called respectively the applications of word processing, spreadsheet and presentations and the first thing that caught my attention is homepage of each, that are connected to the Internet and to show document templates . But as everything is in Chinese, so I left.

Otherwise, I’ve always been a user of such null office solutions, so hopefully more seasoned comments than mine on the capabilities of WPS Office, you can see the video below:

Finally, obvious question: what do you think?

“ Makes about four years that we launched our vision-phones, tablets, PCs, TVs, and build a design team that understands the challenge “, Shuttleworth said. “ The result you see is really elegant. This [tablet version] is the missing link , the bridge between what we show six weeks ago and the PC. In a sense, we have been hiding. You can go back to 2009, see things that landed in the distro then and see now why these pieces have come together “.

the question of when the market will see the first models of smartphone and tablet with Ubuntu, surprise, no specific dates or so: “I think phones in January, April tablets “, indicates Shuttleworth, speaking of January and April 2014 . “We have launched [system] for the four devices Nexus and the community is already working in some 20 ports, some for older devices “.

Finally, Shuttleworth is asked how many downloads have had the system “s é in the first six hours we reached the 75,000 downloads, which is fine ” replies. “ We have much work to do, but we have some great partners back and the team is very motivated. We have the opportunity to profoundly change the historical balance of Linux on the PC. Is to is better than Windows 8 as experience and that is not crazy, serious people in the industry are saying ‘that’s better than Windows 8′ [ in tablets], concludes.

Intel would stop making motherboards for PC

We are living times of change. The rise of smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices utrabooks are changing the directions of the market and gradually firms producing desktops will stop doing its components.

Thus

Intel is the first to announce that it will stop making motherboards for desktops, which has been doing for the last twenty years. This announcement gives us an indication that the days of the PC are numbered and that slowly will disappear.

Shortly

ago Intel announced the production of what will now be his last motherboard: Haswell , which arrive later this year.

However this would not be the overnight but a process that would require at least three years. Meanwhile, the funds will be used for the development of ultrabooks and tablets.

Beyond this announcement, Intel will continue to manufacture chips to other motherboard manufacturers such as Asus, ASRock and Gigabyte .

To understand a little more of Intel’s decision to take a look at the market for desktop computers. The explosion of mobile devices in 2012 had a direct impact on sales of the PC. According to the company IDC in the last quarter of last year sales of desktop computers declined by 6.4% compared to the same period of 2011. While over the 12 months of the fall was 4.4%, a higher number than you think if you consider the launch of Windows 8 operating system still failed to meet expectations Microsoft.

Finally, another study analyzed the notebook market also begin to be at risk because it is estimated that by 2017 sales of laptops would reach 393 million units while the tablets would reach 416 million devices.

possible purchase would benefit all three parties. For one Kodak receive a major injection of cash to leave his present complicated. Meanwhile Apple and Google would get core technologies for use in future products. Besides acquiring shared avoid complaints or conflicts for patent violation.

Kodak According to official documents, the catalog would patents valued at more than 2,000 million . However their “real value” would be much less because it was already widely licensed. We should see if the number of corporations satisfy Californian giant photographic needs.

This is not the first time that big names in the industry would rally to such a move. Earlier this year, Apple, Microsoft and Research in Motion tendered 4,500 million dollars to buy more than 6,000 patents from Nortel Network.
