Chrome OS move heats up Microsoft-Google rivalry
,----[ Quote ]
| The already intense Google-Microsoft
| rivalry heated up considerably last month
| with the long-expected release of Google
| Inc.'s Chrome operating system to the open-
| source community.
|
| Analysts say that if the new Linux-based
| operating system catches on quickly after
| it becomes generally available late next
| year, Google's effort to convince corporate
| users that its hosted Google Apps offering
| is a viable alternative to Microsoft
| Corp.'s Office suite could get a huge
| boost.

Microsoft + Mobile Consumers = FAIL
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoftâs latest ad campaign focuses
| heavily on the end user, telling us that
| Windows 7.0 was âdesigned with you in
| mind.â But the company continues to lose
| the fight for consumers, and nowhere is
| that more evident than in its mobile
| business.

HTC Leaked 2010 Roadmap Embraces Android
,----[ Quote ]
| The 2010 product roadmap for mobile device
| maker HTC has been leaked. The detailed
| product specifications and gallery of
| device photos makes me wonder whether it's
| a "leak" or just buzz marketing. Regardless
| of how the HTC 2010 roadmap became public
| knowledge, it looks like HTC is fully
| embracing the Android platform.

So the Google Phone Is Real

| Yes Virginia, there really is a Google
| Phone! And no, I donât mean all those
| Android-powered devices, but instead a
| Google-branded phone that is made by an
| original equipment maker. The company has
| started giving away these devices to its
| employees, who started tweeting about it
| last night, and the company had to make an
| announcement this morning.
