Linux Fails With Netbooks.

Now i'm pretty sure all of you have seen and heard about netbooks and if you haven't let me tell you what they are.
Netbooks are like mini laptops but they are limited in what you can do with them, as far as games and cpu intensive applications go, seeing as how Microsoft's Windows Vista is very memory intensive.

But people are seeming to really like them seeing as how they are selling like hotcakes, but that is not really the exact point I am trying to make
I'm sure you guys have heard about Linux, and if you haven't then go read about it, but it is a Mac and Windows alternative and it is a lot less memory intensive, which makes it a lot faster, it is also very secure.

Ok so lets refresh Linux is a lot less memory intensive, it is faster, and it is more secure now if you were smart you would probably be thinking didn't you say that netbooks are limited in what they do because of Vista's memory intensive ways?
Well if you were thinking that then you are a very smart person. Now you would think that Linux would jump in on this whole netbook sensation, but no they didn't and they still aren't.
But why? Why would Linux not take this big opportunity to become a bigger part of the operating system world.

Now granted Linux has become more and more popular over the past few years especially Ubuntu and Yellow Dog Linux, Now before you go out and download Yellow Dog Linux I should let you know it is for "Power PC's" only, but it has been specifically designed for the Playstation 3. Thats right you know Sony's PS3 your kids talk about? Yeah that one, so in a way the PS3 is all you need for your basic needs, it is a game console, a dvd player, a blu-ray player, and now a computer.

I know that Linux is on a few netbooks, but why just a few when they could have dominated the netbook industry?
I think Linux has failed as a community on this next big thing.
That being said I have nothing against Linux at all, I just think that they could have done a lot better on these netbooks.
