| Eventually Someone Makes a Better Wheel If Intel is backing Google OS, might be a real achilles heal to Microsoft. Microsoft needs Intel more than Intel needs them. |

Pleasant Hill, MO | It depends on if google's OS is good. If it IS good MS may have some trouble, if it sucks ms will be just fine. |

From what I have been able to read on it so far, and unless they do a major overhaul of it between now and when it's released, it's built to be a cloud-based OS focused on netbooks with 'always on mobile broadband'. Basically just making their web apps more tightly integrated into the OS I guess.
Which is good for the netbook users who don't need much more than the web. But for everyone else, a straight *nix or BSD distro or windows are still gonna be taking big marketshare.
