Chromium OS will Kick Windows to Curb 'Cause Netbooks Don't Suck

,----[ Quote ]
| Netbook sales numbers speak for 
| themselves, up 264 percent, year over 
| year. According to DisplaySearch, that was 
| $2.2 billion in the second quarter of 2009 
| alone. Itâs the only category of portable 
| PC that increased sales and represented 
| 11.7 percent of all portable PC sales. Iâd 
| argue that the number is also deceptive 
| because netbooks cost, what, at most half 
| of a notebook or laptop? So the unit 
| volume has to be hitting something closer 
| to 25 percent of all portable PC sales.

Official and Unofficial Google Chrome Extensions

,----[ Quote ]
| If you like Google Chromeâs speed, but 
| miss the extensibility of Firefox, youâre 
| in luck. The Chrome team announced the 
| developer program around Chrome Extensions 
| this week, and unveiled part of the site 
| that will eventually serve as the official 
| mothership for Chrome add-ons. If you 
| canât wait until then, weâve got a round-
| up of resources for unofficial scripts and 
| extension that should keep you occupied 
| until the wraps come off.

Combining Chrome OS With Android Looks Like Google's Endgame

,----[ Quote ]
| Now that Google has unveiled Chrome OS, it
| has to make sure it doubles down on
| Chrome's exposure.
|
| With Chrome OS a potentially disruptive
| operating system in a market long-dominated
| by Google arch rival Microsoft, the
| backlash against Chrome will be quick and
| unrelenting if Google doesn't have a solid
| long-term plan in place. Several Microsoft
| partners are already on record as saying
| Chrome OS is "all talk."
