Curious about Linux? Try Linux Desktop on the Cloud
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
Linux maintains a very small market share as a desktop operating system. Current surveys estimate its share to be a mere 2%; contrast that with the various strains (no pun intended) of Windows which total nearly 90% of the desktop market. For Linux to challenge Microsoft's monopoly on the desktop, there needs to be a simple way of learning about this different operating system. And it would be naive to believe a typical Windows user is going to buy a second machine, tinker with partitioning a hard disk to set up a multi-boot system, or just jump ship to Linux without an easy way back.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
We have examined a number of risk-free ways users can experiment with Linux without dabbling with partition management. Various options include Live CD/DVDs, USB keys and desktop virtualization software. For the latter, I can strongly recommend VMWare (VMWare Player) or Oracle VirtualBox, two relatively easy and free ways of installing and running multiple operating systems on a desktop or laptop computer. Each virtual machine has its own share of CPU, memory, network interfaces etc which is isolated from other virtual machines. But virtual machines still require some effort to get Linux up and running, and a reasonably powerful machine. Too much effort for a mere inquisitive mind.
|
||||
|
||||
It can be difficult to break down preconceptions. Many Windows users will have experimented with free software that is available on Linux. But there are many facets to learn on Linux. And it takes time to become accustomed to the way things work in Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
Surely there should be an effortless way for a beginner to experiment with Linux for the first time? Indeed there is; step forward the online cloud lab.
|
||||
|
||||
### LabxNow ###
|
||||
|
||||
![LabxNow](http://www.linuxlinks.com/portal/content/reviews/Cloud/Screenshot-LabxNow.png)
|
||||
|
||||
LabxNow provides a free service for general users offering Linux remote desktop over the browser. The developers promote the service as having a personal remote lab (to play around, develop, whatever!) that will be accessible from anywhere, with the internet of course.
|
||||
|
||||
The service currently offers a free virtual private server with 2 cores, 4GB RAM and 10GB SSD space. The service runs on a 4 AMD 6272 CPU with 128GB RAM.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Features include: ####
|
||||
|
||||
- Machine images: Ubuntu 14.04 with Xfce 4.10, RHEL 6.5, CentOS with Gnome, and Oracle
|
||||
- Hardware: CPU - 1 or 2 cores; RAM: 512MB, 1GB, 2GB or 4GB
|
||||
- Fast network for data transfers
|
||||
- Works with all popular browsers
|
||||
- Install anything, run anything - an excellent way to experiment and learn all about Linux without any risk
|
||||
- Easily add, delete, manage and customize VMs
|
||||
- Share VMs, Remote desktop support
|
||||
|
||||
All you need is a reasonable Internet connected device. Forget about high cost VPS, domain space or hardware support. LabxNow offers a great way of experimenting with Ubuntu, RHEL and CentOS. It gives Windows users an excellent environment to dip their toes into the wonderful world of Linux. Further, it allows users to do (programming) work from anywhere in the word without having the stress of installing Linux on each machine. Point your web browser at [www.labxnow.org/labxweb/][1].
|
||||
|
||||
There are other services (mostly paid services) that allow users to experiment with Linux. These include Cloudsigma which offers a free 7 day trial, and Icebergs.io (full root access via HTML5). But for now, LabxNow gets my recommendation.

好奇Linux?试试云端的Linux桌面
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
Linux在桌面操作系统市场上只占据了非常小的份额,目前调查来看,估计只有2%的市场份额;对比来看丰富多变的Windows系统占据了接近90%的市场份额。对于Linux来说要挑战Windows在桌面操作系统市场的垄断,需要一个简单的方式来让用户学习不同的操作系统。如果你相信传统的Windows用户再买一台机器来使用Linux,你就太天真了。我们只能去试想用户重新分盘,设置引导程序来使用双系统,或者跳过所有步骤回到一个最简单的方法。
|
||||
![](http://www.linuxlinks.com/portal/content/reviews/Cloud/CloudComputing.png)
|
||||
|
||||
我们实验过一系列无风险的使用方法让用户试操作Linux,并且不涉及任何分区管理,包括CD/DVDs光盘、USB钥匙和桌面虚拟化软件。通过实验,我强烈推荐使用VMware的VMware Player或者Oracle VirtualBox虚拟机,对于桌面操作系统或者便携式电脑的用户,这是一种相对简单而且免费的的方法来安装运行多操作系统。每一台虚拟机和其他虚拟机相隔离,但是共享CPU,存贮,网络接口等等。但是虚拟机仍需要一定的资源来安装运行Linux,也需要一台相当强劲的主机。对于一个好奇心不大的人,这样做实在是太麻烦了。
|
||||
|
||||
要打破用户传统的使用观念市非常困难的。很多Windows用户可以尝试使用Linux提供的免费软件,但也有太多要学习的Linux系统知识。这会花掉相当一部分时间来习惯Linux的工作方式。
|
||||
|
||||
当然了,对于一个第一次在Linux上操作的新手,有没有一个更高效的方法呢?答案是肯定的,接着往下看看云实验平台。
|
||||
|

### LabxNow ###
|
||||
|
||||
![LabxNow](http://www.linuxlinks.com/portal/content/reviews/Cloud/Screenshot-LabxNow.png)
|
||||
|
||||
LabxNow提供了一个免费服务,方便广大用户通过浏览器来访问远程Liunx桌面。开发者将其加强为一个用户个人远程实验室(用户可以在系统里运行、开发任何程序),用户可以在任何地方通过互联网登入远程实验室。
|
||||
|
||||
这项服务现在可以为个人用户提供2核处理器,4GB RAM和10GB的固态硬盘,运行在128G RAM的4 AMD 6272处理器上。
|
||||
|
||||
#### 配置参数: ####
|
||||
|
||||
- 系统镜像:基于Ubuntu 14.04的Xface 4.10,RHEL 6.5,CentOS(Gnome桌面),Oracle
|
||||
- 硬件: CPU - 1核或者2核; 内存: 512MB, 1GB, 2GB or 4GB
|
||||
- 超快的网络数据传输
|
||||
- 可以运行在所有流行的浏览器上
|
||||
- 可以安装任意程序,可以运行任何程序 – 这是一个非常棒的方法,可以随意做实验学你你想学的所有知识, 没有 一点风险
|
||||
- 添加、删除、管理、制定虚拟机非常方便
|
||||
- 支持虚拟机共享,远程桌面
|
||||
|
||||
你所需要的只是一台有稳定网络的设备。不用担心虚拟专用系统(VPS)、域名、或者硬件带来的高费用。LabxNow提供了一个非常好的方法在Ubuntu、RHEL和CentOS上实验。它给Windows用户一个极好的环境,让他们探索美妙的Linux世界。说得深一点,它可以让用户随时随地在里面工作,而没有了要在每台设备上安装Linux的压力。点击下面这个链接进入[www.labxnow.org/labxweb/][1]。
|
||||
|
||||
这里还有一些其它服务(大部分市收费服务)可以让用户在Linux使用。包括Cloudsigma环境的7天使用权和Icebergs.io(通过HTML5实现root权限)。但是现在,我推荐LabxNow。
