Android and Chrome OS Look Poised to Accompany Other OSes
,----[ Quote ]
| Acer's Aspire One line of netbooks has
| been a huge hit, and the company continues
| to experiment with designs and software
| configurations. As the number of
| applications for Android has risen, it
| makes more and more sense for the
| operating system to run alongside Windows
| and various flavors of Linux. After all,
| Linux resides on many dual-OS systems, and
| Android is Linux-based.
