At least they are trying, there is space for new OSes. They will try to profit their rank and lots of people will check it and some will remain loyal.

Sounds a bit strange trough (but I won't be surprised) as they use a modified version of Ubuntu Linux in offices as far as I know.

i think you may be wrong

computer get smaller and smaller and are now closer to a mobile device than a real computer

and smaller devices means less ressources , this is why such OS like android are exactly what those devices need , and android based notebook are already on their way

Yeah I agree and now that Google is also quite a big name on the net.. Some people might just shift over.

I cant agree with you completely. May be they can outperform microsoft and nobody knows what is gonna happen. I like each and every approach of google and their every innovative work. I still remember those days when they first started off and now see they are the leader.

This rumor surfaces about 3 times per year. I'll believe it when I see it.

Google acts while Microsoft takes their time, just take a look at what happened to doubleclick.
