So China has finally said goodbye to Windows (like how it's said goodbye to many other popular websites and internet companies) and has found its replacement.

But it seems that it's basically just a ripoff of Windows XP...

From theverge.com
Quote:Built by Shanghai's China Standard Software, NeoKylin includes a Start menu with a skin that looks like the Media Center version of Microsoft's famous Window XP theme. It's shamelessly identical, even down to references to My Computer, My Documents, Control Panel, and even a Recycle Bin. NeoKylin also includes Word, Excel, and PowerPoint alternatives that look identical to Microsoft's counterparts, and are reportedly based on an old modified version of OpenOffice.

Here's a video demonstrating the new OS.



It's already been installed on most Dell computers, stating that over 40% of Dell computers have already been shipped with this OS.

What do you think? Did China make the right decision?
yeah
