Android Has Won â Time for Chrome OS to Move Along?
,----[ Quote ]
| Yes Google held a press conference where
| co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin
| talked up the Chrome Web Store, but that
| was pretty much it. Thatâs because while
| Chrome is still waiting for its day in the
| sun, Android has taken on a life of its
| own. By the time the Chrome OS becomes
| available via devices on store shelves,
| who knows where Android will be.

What's next for the future of the netbook?
,----[ Quote ]
| New platforms hint at new directions too.
| ARM's recently-released Cortex A9 processor
| claims far greater computing power per watt
| than the Atom, but doesn't offer the x86
| compatibility required to run Windows. ARM
| could thus bring Linux-based netbooks back
| into play, perhaps providing a boost for
| Google's web-based Chrome OS.

Installing Linux On ARM-Based Netbooks?
,----[ Quote ]
| For example, the Augen E-Go. It is a
| widely touted theory that it is impossible
| to install Linux on one of these
| notebooks, replacing the commonly
| installed Windows CE operating system. The
| sub-$100 netbooks carry decent specs,
| including 533MHz ARM processor; 128MB DDR
| RAM; and a 2GB Flash drive, as well as
| most expected netbook components (USB, Wi-
| Fi, etc.). I find it hard to believe that
| a computer with these specs is impossible
| to hack and install Linux to, but Google
| searches have been largely unsuccessful in
| finding proper information. Do any
| Slashdot readers have experience in
| installing ARM Linux distros to these
| cheap netbooks like this? If so, what
| distros do they recommend?
