Is the new Google Operating system going to change things?

Now that Google has announced a new operating system, will there be a shift in power??

So far, Google has a very good track record when it comes to creating products; obviously they are the number one search engine in the world. Secondly, they have produced a fantastic search engine browser in the shape of Google chrome, and in my opinion it is sad that it really hasn’t taken off like it should have done, but it is part of the bigger picture.

Thirdly, their android mobile phone software is a fantastic open source alternative to apples iPhone software. It really is a slick interface that is mightily impressive as anyone who has used it can confirm. 

So all of the above bodes well for a new operating system. According to the Google blog, the OS will be released next year in the form of a netbook os which is based on a UNIX platform but after that nothing has been confirmed. One thing is for sure, if Google are serious about supplying an alternative to Windows, then they will need to invest a lot of time and effort into supplying a decent alternative.

Microsoft has become a monopoly and people are starting to tire of them and their bloatware that has taken over the world. The IT Support Company I work for has many clients that would love an alternative to the overpriced, underdeveloped excuse that was Vista and I second their opinion.

Let’s hope that the financial might of Google can get all the hardware companies onside. Let’s hope they can break the monopoly and put some real competition on the high street.
