  • Chrome OS will compete with Ubuntu: Chrome OS—which is open source—will further fragment the open source operating system market, since it will provide yet another option, writes Renai LeMay at ZDNet. This comes just as Ubuntu was becoming the dominant choice. He writes, “In this context, Google’s decision to create its own Linux distribution and splinter the Linux community decisively ... can only be seen as foolhardy and self-obsessive.” That could obviously benefit Microsoft.

      Great points but MS better be worried. The day they quit worrying is the day they need to start closing shop.
