Then, <A href="http://www.novell.com/prblogs/?p=589">Intel announced that it was partnering with Novell to bring pre-installed Moblin desktops</A> to netbooks. At this point, I was really puzzled. But, then Intel released the new version of Moblin and their moves suddenly made sense.  </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blogs.computerworld.com/moblin_netbook_linux_preview"><P>Intel wants to compete with its long-time partner Microsoft in the operating system business.
