This is a Google Computer?
Seriously? I was sure we would see it one day, and apparently, that day is now here. A “Google Operating System” called gOS is running on this PC. The OS is a variant of the popular Ubuntu with lots of optimization for Google products. This isn’t an officially Google-sponsored PC, so I suggest Google disassociates themselves with the PC makers fast. The PC, designed to be a low-end, affordable desktop is being sold at Walmart. The PC has a 1.5 GHz Via Technologies C7-D processor, 512 MB of DDR2 memory, an 80 GB hard drive, a DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive, an Ethernet port, a parallel port, and 6 USB ports, and comes with OpenOffice pre-installed. Although I’m sure the PC is decent, it’s hardly the glamorous launch Google would want for their (currently rumored) OS. I mean, jeez, eMachines are sexier than that.

Plain ugly yeh, but we’ll never see a real Google PC or Google device for that matters, they don’t have hardware much infrastructure. I’d rather bet on a Google OS working on every PC, and yeh, surely based on Linux
Hey Now Sarah,
GOS huh, I heard it hear first.
Thx for the info,
