Android laptop
1) Fewer applications
Just as you don't get as many apps in the Android Marketplace as you do the iPhone App Store, there just isn't as much available software for Android based netbooks. What's more, much of the Linux software won't work on Google's OS either because of issues with running established Java standards. So, you might well have a lightening fast little PC but end up with very little non-web-based apps that you can actually run on it.
2) Familiarity
Are the benefits of Android really that, well, beneficial? Most people will be making the choice between Android and Windows and, as many issues as Microsoftware may have, it suddenly feels very different when faced with the idea of learning a new operating system. It's all fun and exciting on the face of it but when things go wrong and you're trying to dig around options menus that you don't even know where they are any more, it's another thing. So, make sure you're up for the adventure.
3) Multi-tasking issues
One criticism of Google's OS is that it's not so hot on multi-tasking. Now, that's all very well on a mobile phone but even on the move it's quite an important and basic principle of a computer. You may be largely using your browser on a laptop but there's still plenty of times you'll need two, three or more applications open to move between some images, your work, e-mail or even look at some video. And there's few things more annoying than a brand new computer chugging along at snail speeds the minute you start to push it.
4) Hardware compatibility
There's a very limited set of drivers available on Android compared to Windows for the very same reason as there's a very limited amount of malware. It's just not top of a developer's agenda. Turn over enough hardware boxes on the shelves at Dixons et al and you'll be lucky if you see support for Linux, let alone Android. Fortunately, if you do see the friendly little penguin, there's a decent chance it'll work with Google's take on the kernel as well but no promises. You could find yourself with a few headaches in this department.
5) Windows will do
The thing is that, firstly, the latest Windows software isn't wildly expensive any more - and often heavily subsidised in a new PC anyway - and, secondly, even netbooks are getting quite powerful these days - so are the issues of Windows being heavy, slow and costly quite what they were even a year ago? Taken purely on those factors, Android still has the drop on Microsoft but add in the potential problems above and the balance starts to tip. |
