Will Dell Dump Microsoft for Google's Chrome Operating System?
,----[ Quote ]
| Google's (GOOG) Chrome operating system
| will be locked in a market share war with
| Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows OS when it's
| released later this year. Microsoft has a
| huge lead because it runs, by some
| estimates, on 90% of the PCs sold around
| the world. The success of Windows 7 may
| help cement that advantage. But the tide
| could be changing.
|
| Google and Dell (DELL) are discussing a
| deal to have its Chrome OS put on on the PC
| company's laptops. According to Reuters,
| "We have to have a point of view on the
| industry and technology direction two
| years, three years down the road, so we
| continuously work with Google on this,"
| Amit Midha, Dell's president for Greater
| China and South Asia said.

| Many in the Ubuntu community are looking
| forward to the release of Ubuntu 10.10 this
| October. One reason, as youâll see here on

| Ubuntu Light, which Canonical is working
| with OEMs to get pre-installed as a dual-
| boot option on Windows laptops â with the
| benefit being they can access popular
| productivity and communication programs
| like Google Chrome/Chromium, Skype, Totem
