Re: Eventually Someone Makes a Better Wheel

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.

Chrome isn't really an OS. It's just another GUI experience for Linux. As such, it isn't really an OS at all.

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.

I swear, some people should have pace-makers installed to free up the resources. Breathing and heart beat taxes their whole system, all of their brain cells wasted on life support.-two bit brains, and the second bit is wasted on parity! ~head_spaz
