Most of you already know, Google, in the coming year -2010, will introduce the much expected Google Chrome OS. But before that the race between different netbook companies to woo the market has already begun. Just a few days ago Dell brought out a compatible version for mini netbooks. Though Dell is not named in the official partner list by Google, it still managed to get all the attention by introducing this compatible version.
Second in the row is Acer, which says it will be the first one to manufacture a netbook to support Google Chrome OS. In fact Acer has already begun the manufacturing work (started sometime in mid 2009).If Acer will live up to its claim or not cannot be said now. Last time we all saw that Acer failed in making netbooks those were to support Android (users could not install anything on these Android netbooks. Only the battery lasted longer with Android running on the netbook). This time Acer may actually be the first one to bring out netbooks for Chrome OS. But like I said earlier, nothing is confirmed.
For those who are still unaware of the Chrome OS news, Google Chrome Operating system will act both like a web-browser and an operating system. With that one will not have to download various tools, softwares etc. Everything will be found on cloud; and one can just take it from there, use it and give it back to the cloud. Simple. Once out, the Chrome OS is going make internet a lot different from what it is now. So now you get why the race is getting tougher.
All we can ask for is that users get a good, convenient to use netbook for Google Chrome Operating System. Till then let’s wait and watch who else joins this race. After all, the race has just begun…
