TECHNOLOGY JUST FOR ME - Keeping it Simple.

Google is set to launch their own computer software, Google Chrome OS, in late 2010.



What does this mean to me and you?



Rumors are swirling that Google OS is so fast that it takes nearly 7 seconds from the moment you press power to the moment the desktop is done loading! As fast as your T.V.!



To good to be true?

"Manufacturers have yet to announce pricing on netbooks shipping with Chrome OS, but Google expects the cost to be about the same as current netbooks. On average, netbooks cost between $300 and $500" says wired.com

Low Price, High Quality, Fast speed?! Since when is anything Good, fast, and cheap! A deadly combination for competitors.

So where it the extra edge that Google is famous for? How about...No hard Drives.

Yes that's right, "Chrome OS netbooks will not have traditional hard disk drives -- they will rely on non-volatile flash memory and Internet-based storage for saving all of your data." states Wired Magazine.

"Chrome OS is a totally rethought computer that will let you focus on the Internet, so you can stop worrying about your computer," according to a Google promotional video.

Can Windows and Mac compete?

In my opinion, Yes. For now. Google has a very simple theme whuch focuses soley on the internet and Web 2.0 interface. So if your into playing video games, editing movies, writing reports, or just staying off the internet, then Chrome might not be for you yet.

Reason being, Google has repeatedly held to the idea that in the future, everything will be on the internet, including all of the above things mentioned.

Also, Chrome is not downloadable so you will have to buy the software already installed on the stores computers.

Google has once again become the leader in innovative technology that other companies are scurrying to keep up with.
