Does Amazon Abandon Linux for Windows?

without comments

In his excellent blog post, Amazon Abandons Linux for WindowsKen Hess is speculating about the reasons Amazon has signed patent agreement with Microsoft. He has arrived at the conclusion that Amazon is interested in converting its Linux based Kindle into a Windows based device.

Good point, and although Ken may be right about it, this is a rather long shot. It may, as well, be related to Amazon Web Services, an important Amazon business by itself, rather than Kindle. Amazon announcement only one day after the patent agreement deal, as Ken noted, is an indication of this.

Time will tell, as the saying goes.
