Interesting. I wonder if I would use it...
The article also mentioned that they would be talking to some of the open source developers about it as well.
We'll have to see
I was just wondering when they were gonna start won on their OS...
Eager to see something, but it will be years yet...

Licensing and so on will take forever.
It will probabally not be a conventional OS anyway.

Well rumors anyway...
personally if they did i think it would kind of suck because it would be way too web orientated. The whole os would probably be based around the google site - get me?

dunno how that will work but it will probably be something like instead of my computer - my email and my do***ents would be my favourites or something
i dunno its probably all specualtion
Google may be able to gain some market share off IE but it won't even be able to make a tiny dent in the Windows marketshare (if they're even thinking of creating an OS, that is).

Instead of booting into the OS, you would likely "dial up" to it and have all of your files stored on the google servers...
These is the concept that has been floating around recently.
It would probabally be covered in adwords - with the option to take them away if you pay for it (Like opera)...
These are a few thoughts that are floating around. But none of this has any proof.
Things change, and I have no doubt that the way we use our PC's will too.

SEBasic, I'd give you that - yes, in this fast changing world, who knows, what you mentioned may just come true - maybe soon
Google have bought it... Which shows that they may well use that domain to publicise it when the browser is released.

Well, if you want the best of the best, you go to the Master.
Google never released this OS did they? Or else the rumors weren't true and they were never building it.
Please Radavan, keep on-topic and reply with with a little sence. You keep praising Microsoft for everything they do. A Search Engine is totally different than a Operating System, it directly has nothing to do with each other.
Please correct me if I'm wrong staff.
