In fact, the basic disk of Bee started with the security software of the windospc platform, and relied on the browser-bound navigation page to earn the first pot of gold, and then set foot in more fields and gradually developed into a technology group across multiple categories.

However, at the moment when the PC is declining and many new netizens have not touched the keyboard, it is the general trend for the business to follow the user to the mobile terminal, so the new three-year medium-term plan of Bee has established a policy of tilting towards the mobile terminal, and the original PC platform business will naturally begin to shrink or even completely cut off.

And at this time,The status of the x86 version of the bee system is a little embarrassing,Because it is modified from the bee system that was originally used as a mobile phone system,To be compatible with the dominant X86CPU on the PC,It turned out to be the hottest windos on the X86 hardware platform that Zhu Bajie looks at inside and outside the mirror、The most beautiful is MAS、The most free is Linux,The former of the newborn calf has neither a large number of users and massive software,There is no cool and invincible interface and fame,It is not open source software that can be modified at will。

Because of the different relationship between the CPU instruction set, the mobile phone software accumulated by the bee system for many years cannot be directly run on it, all the x86 version of the application software are written by the bee's own company, and it is completely supported by the bee itself, and because of the low-cost pricing strategy of the system's free software during the promotion period, this system has become a de facto gold-swallowing monster, and the worst thing is that there is no hope of success.

So it was abandoned by the bees, and the bees retreated quite completely, even with the PC platform.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Bee has to give up on desktops, laptops, etc.

PC is actually the habitual abbreviation of IBMPC compatible machine,But because IBM has long sold the PC department to the relationship of face thinking,So everyone habitually omits it,Basically, small microcomputers that use x86 architecture processors from Intel can be called PCs,Like Apple Mac,06IBMpoerPC processors that used reduced instruction sets before 06,So it's not,06After the defection to the Intel camp,Use the Core processor,It became a PC。 And the hegemon in PC is naturally Windos, which occupies more than 90% of the world's system share.

In fact, Microsoft and Intel are both successful and Xiao He is also defeated, the two technology giants have long seen PC sales stagnate or even decline, and mobile phone sales as the representative of mobile devices are in full swing, love and kill the old rival Apple Computer Company simply became Apple (mobile phone) company, making money and making a lot of fun, naturally in addition to envy, jealousy and hatred, but also with the mentality of "I can do it" to re-enter the mobile device market, but it was full of bags!

Intel sold its own arm-based mobile phone processor Xscale business as early as 06 years, and the takeover man is a Chinese company in the United States, Marvell Technology Group (one more L than Marvel), and now wants to return to the mobile phone market, but it is embarrassing to find: Grandma actually has a **?

No, there is no baseband chip for processing mobile phone communication functions, because it has been sold with the Xscale package, and even if it is not sold, you have to find Qualcomm and other companies to buy new 3G and 4G patent licenses.

In this way, the mobile phone using the intel core has to buy another baseband chip, not to mention the increase in cost, this intel core is still based on the x86 atom chip, the energy consumption is quite touching! you must know that the latter was originally used for netbooks, but as a result, a bunch of deep-town cottage factories have made "ultra-light notebooks" into "ultra-cheap notebooks", the price is cheap, and it is natural to use the screen, battery, memory, The hard drive gets back the lost profits, and the end result is that consumers find that the netbook is dysfunctional and has no love.

Therefore, most mobile phone manufacturers are not interested in Intel's promotion of ATOM, and even if they occasionally use ATOM to make x86 tablets, they sell very well. However, Intel is full of confidence that the new generation of Baytrail series will be launched in the second half of the year.

As for Microsoft, they have never left, before the iPad, Microsoft released the tablet handwriting tablet, and WinDos touched the LE back then, and Symbian BlackBerry said that the existence of the three major mobile phone systems. But now, Symbian is dead, BlackBerry has changed its heart, and the latter acquired QNX, a microcore operating system also from Canada, in 10 years, and built the BlackBerry 10 system based on this famous automotive operating system, which was officially launched this year. It's just a pity that it's too late......

Although QNX is widely used in cars and routers, both of these devices themselves are products with fixed functions and do not require too much application software, so the BlackBerry 10 system developed from it can be said to be built from scratch, and it is necessary to accumulate a large number of applications and games in order to win the love of users.

And the square screen and full keyboard design that BlackBerry conventionally insists on are so unique, although there is no shortage of followers who feel that they want this style, but most consumers don't buy it, who calls them not a program ape with a hanging?

The WM system was originally designed for PDAs on handheld computers, and later developed into smartphones, and the standard stylus has not been discarded as an heirloom. To some extent, it is this pen that pokes this once glorious operating system!

This is because the stylus can inherit the mouse pointer experience, but larger fingers cannot.

Before Jobs entered the mobile phone market with a capacitive screen iPhone, the vast majority of smartphones used resistive screens, and most of them were equipped with stylus and text menus with hard nibs, which were all the poison of Microsoft WM. After all, it is much more convenient to put your fingers directly on your fingers than to take out a slender stylus and pinch it and then point and stroke!

Microsoft is also in such a big stick after the head,This is the realization that WM's menu-based interface from PC is outdated,Learn from the pain and launch a metro interface specially prepared for small-screen devices such as mobile phones in 10 years,The icon is too small to be a point? OK to enlarge it into a tile for you, and you're not afraid of missing it, right?

But at this time, Microsoft's engineer thinking was convulsive again,After seeing the metro interface to achieve a piece of praise,They actually brain-pumped it into a new generation of PC system win8,The result was reprimanded by a group of "mouse party",Many people are not used to win8The touch style of the start desktop,Angry and reinstall win7。 Microsoft realized that he had taken it for granted again, and hurriedly announced that the start button in win8.1, which will be released this year, will return.

Microsoft has an operating system that is very similar to the status of the x86 version of the bee system, that is, winrt, which is an unlucky child who doesn't love his father and mother.

Microsoft officially gave up the Wince kernel last year,And based on itWM、WP7 system,The re-launched WindoSphone8 system is a new system based on the X86 architecture and NT core,But because of the WP7 upgrade issue,Third-party manufacturers are not very cold,Only Nokia, which has been on the thief ship, is still launching a mobile phone equipped with this system。

Compared with the small, users seem to prefer tablets equipped with win8 system, because the latter can directly run the massive exe applications accumulated by the PC platform for many years, although most of these applications need to be connected to an additional keyboard and mouse to use normally, but it still attracts a lot of shy users, buy a low-cost tablet with win8+atom, and connect the keyboard and mouse as a cheap netbook.

And the same is for the tablet field RT,There is no chance to hug the thigh of the PC system,Because of the reason based on the ARM architecture,The application software running on it needs to be redeveloped,Although Microsoft has introduced its own ace software Office series and IE10,But it can't stand without the cooperation of other manufacturers,This system is a fiasco,According to relevant surveys, RT equipment sold only 200,000 units in the first quarter of this year,A number of third-party manufacturers are very hurt,They have turned to the production of authentic Win8 tablets。 But it's a pity that they don't know that Intel is preparing to launch a big battle of "rural encirclement of the city", and finally had to give up the win8 tablet, but that's for later.

In fact, in the tablet market, except for the first successful iPad, and the Microsoft Surface (Lux, what the hell? isn't it called Sophie?), and the Bee Pad, there is no one who has succeeded. At this time, the surface is not yet successful, but the tablet products of the bee home have achieved excellent sales results in the market segment by virtue of their differentiated advantages, although the sales volume is only one million level, and the ipad can not be compared, but it is good to make money.

In fact, Atletico Madrid's so-called withdrawal from the PC platform, in fact, is because he sees the potential of the Surface, although the latter's dismal sales are not considered a success, but Atletico Madrid believes that its idea of using a reduced instruction set processor is correct, compared to its sibling using the Core i5 Pro is actually a deformed notebook that replaces the keyboard and mouse with a touch screen, and has not yet jumped out of the barrier of the keyboard and mouse.

As for the problem of too few applications that plague Surface(RT),In front of the Atletico and the bee software that was opened by him,Naturally, it's not a problem.,And then the X86 Bee was cut。

The reason for cutting it down is mainly because Bee intends to concentrate on the closed-loop ecosystem of its own bar architecture + bee system. Because x86pc has developed a very perfect relationship,intel、Microsoft has accumulated a large number of patents in this area,Build a firm patent barrier,X86The reason why the bee can't be sold,A very important reason is that it was threatened by Microsoft's patents abroad,Although foreigners are not happy with Microsoft's domination of the rivers and lakes for a long time,But people have a patent stick in their hands and everyone has no temper。

In fact, Microsoft is not wrong,Atletico Madrid did a lot of research and reference to several major operating systems on the market when leading the development of x86 bee,From the interface to the part of the source code that can be obtained, there is in-depth analysis and research,The final release of the bee system x86 version has tried its best to erase the traces of "borrowing" from the code and program architecture,But because everyone has the same hardware foundation and user base,So the final UI/UX (user interface/user experience) is still very similar to windos。

This is not a problem in China where "pixel-level copying" is rampant, after all, there is no direct use of Microsoft's code and file resources, but it is not possible in foreign countries, and people can register patents for the operation method.

Long before Apple registered the patent for the phone's sliding unlock and rounded rectangular appearance, Microsoft registered a patent for mouse clicks, double-clicks, triple-clicks, or even n-clicks in 2004, but Microsoft didn't wield the patent stick in a rage like Apple. It's ironic to think that two tech giants with a market capitalization of more than $100 billion are resorting to court for rounded rectangles, a common appearance that may have existed for thousands of years.

Microsoft threatened to go to court against Bee, but Bee simply did not export the corresponding products, and Microsoft did not get the support of specific regulations in China, so in the end it could only walk down without embarrassment. And now Atletico Madrid simply took advantage of the Prism Gate incident to re-arouse the high attention of the domestic operating system and give away the x86 bee.

Originally, although Bee had gradually abandoned x86pc and concentrated on the development plan of mobile Internet, it did not formulate a specific time node, but then several things happened in a row to make Atletico make this decision. In addition to the international fighter Snowden's plan to puncture the American prism in early June, Heron Island announced that it would require an ID card and a letter of introduction to buy bottled gasoline.

Of course, the most important reason is that on May 28, the 301 processor based on 28nm was successfully taped out in Wanwan.

Bee has been researching 64-bit processors for a long time, and after the completion of this new architecture based on the 28nm process, because its cooperative wafer factories in the mainland do not yet have this strength, the final 310 series production orders were placed on the other side of the strait, and the first batch of 301 processors put into production is the 301 processor with the smallest chip area, the simplest function, and the smallest power consumption.

This ultra-low-power processor is used in the new generation of Bee Band Lite, which can further enhance the latter's already long battery life.

Originally, the design team also planned to equip it with an electromagnetic energy recovery function to achieve permanent battery life, but because it might make the wearer scold "You blocked my mobile phone signal!", they had to give up. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
