Official Google Blog: Introducing the Google Chrome OS

In a move that directly threatens Microsoft's home turl, Google announced late Tuesday night of a new product: Google Chrome OS. According to the official Google blog,

"We're designing the OS to be fast and lightweight, to start up and get you onto the web in a few seconds. The user interface is minimal to stay out of your way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web. And as we did for the Google Chrome browser, we are going back to the basics and completely redesigning the underlying security architecture of the OS so that users don't have to deal with viruses, malware and security updates. It should just work."

This seems like a good time for Google updates. With Google Wave introduced a while back, the Google Apps products recently coming out of Beta, and the (arguable) success of the Google Chrome web browser, Google's OS is in perfect position to have a strong entry into the world of PC's.
