Cloud over the IT world in 2010? â Survey results & what next for Windows?
,----[ Quote ]
| So what of Windows? Could its closed source
| nature be eventually the death of it? Quite
| possibly, one only has to look at the wealth
| of FOSS projects that are providing
| alternative solutions to many of Microsoft
| products. Even Microsoft themselves are
| alleged to use GPL code (and allegedly violate
| it albeit by a third party)
|
| Remember Mr Ballmerâs cancer comment in
| regards to Linux?
|
| Linux is a cancer that attaches itself in
| an intellectual property sense to
| everything it touches
|
| But then should we really pay any attention to
| him? he was alleged afterall to also say that
| Google was a house of cards and iPhone had no
| chance of getting a significant market share.
| I bring this up since GoogleOS is built on
| Linux so its rather relevant that the first
| âmainstreamâ steps of this concept are being
| taken by that which Mr Ballmer seems to have a
| low opinion of. Talking of cancer and IP, I
| wonder if he would like to retract that since
| Microsoft China are alleged to have taken code
| from another companies product and attempted
| to use it as their own. For more information
| on this, read the article here.

The rise of Google Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| Google launched the open-source browser in
| 2008, prompting many to ask why anyone needed
| another after Microsoft's Internet Explorer,
| Mozilla's Firefox, and Apple's Safari. But over
| the course of 2009, Google answered that
| question: with Chrome, the company wants not
| just to speed up the Web but to rebuild its
| foundations.

Google Chrome OS goes native (code)
,----[ Quote ]
| Google's Chrome OS does not run local
| applications or store local data. Everything is
| handled inside the browser. But when the much-
| hyped operating system debuts on netbooks at
| the end of next year, you can bet it will
| execute native code on behalf of online Google
| applications such as Gmail or Docs and
| Spreadsheets.
