I really don't think there will ever be such a thing as GoogleOS. you really think they would want to enter a market that is now pretty saturated already (OS/Linux)? I mean it would be a blank shot, yes quite a few people would use it and it might even have some novelty thing going for itself but overall OEMs would have to line up and why would they choose GoogleOS over something like Fedora, debian or Suse? I mean all those distros have a support structure already working, GoogleOS would have to start fresh, from the bottom up... I don't think that will happen.. but I can be wrong of course. In the end its all just speculation and all we can do is wait...//Flosse
Web 3.0.. wow its like saying Vista 2.0 will be really cool.. Vista isn't even fully here yet. Web 2.0 first has to gain track and judging by the slowness of "general adaptation" of web technologies... it will still take a while. I mean it promises already a lot but what will then Web 3.0 do? cook my dinner for me too???//Flosse
So very true. I cant see this taking shape in Finland either.. Drivers here are very... uhm.. selfconscious. If there is no sign, let's hit it.
But if it works in other countries, more power to them.//Flosse
