Kenshou Posted July 9, 2009 Report Posted July 9, 2009 Google Chrome OS Introducing the Google Chrome OS7/07/2009 09:37:00 PM It's been an exciting nine months since we launched the Google Chrome browser. Already, over 30 million people use it regularly. We designed Google Chrome for people who live on the web — searching for information, checking email, catching up on the news, shopping or just staying in touch with friends. However, the operating systems that browsers run on were designed in an era where there was no web. So today, we're announcing a new project that's a natural extension of Google Chrome — the Google Chrome Operating System. It's our attempt to re-think what operating systems should be. Google Chrome OS is an open source, lightweight operating system that will initially be targeted at netbooks. Later this year we will open-source its code, and netbooks running Google Chrome OS will be available for consumers in the second half of 2010. Because we're already talking to partners about the project, and we'll soon be working with the open source community, we wanted to share our vision now so everyone understands what we are trying to achieve. Speed, simplicity and security are the key aspects of Google Chrome OS. 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. Google Chrome OS will run on both x86 as well as ARM chips and we are working with multiple OEMs to bring a number of netbooks to market next year. The software architecture is simple — Google Chrome running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel. For application developers, the web is the platform. All web-based applications will automatically work and new applications can be written using your favorite web technologies. And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform. Google Chrome OS is a new project, separate from Android. Android was designed from the beginning to work across a variety of devices from phones to set-top boxes to netbooks. Google Chrome OS is being created for people who spend most of their time on the web, and is being designed to power computers ranging from small netbooks to full-size desktop systems. While there are areas where Google Chrome OS and Android overlap, we believe choice will drive innovation for the benefit of everyone, including Google. We hear a lot from our users and their message is clear — computers need to get better. People want to get to their email instantly, without wasting time waiting for their computers to boot and browsers to start up. They want their computers to always run as fast as when they first bought them. They want their data to be accessible to them wherever they are and not have to worry about losing their computer or forgetting to back up files. Even more importantly, they don't want to spend hours configuring their computers to work with every new piece of hardware, or have to worry about constant software updates. And any time our users have a better computing experience, Google benefits as well by having happier users who are more likely to spend time on the Internet. We have a lot of work to do, and we're definitely going to need a lot of help from the open source community to accomplish this vision. We're excited for what's to come and we hope you are too. Stay tuned for more updates in the fall and have a great summer. Fuente: Google Chrome OS :rolleyes:
Gollo Posted July 9, 2009 Report Posted July 9, 2009 Google Chrome OSFuente: Google Chrome OS :rolleyes: que bien q le den competencia ala shit de microsoft
loko08 Posted July 9, 2009 Report Posted July 9, 2009 nos van a dominar a todos... ya lo veran... vamos a ser sodomizados por google...
Slackman Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 que bien q le den competencia ala shit de microsoft ¿a la vara de las ranchadas???
General_Grievous Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 recuerden q MS duerme en la misma cama con intel, no se hasta q punto le podran dificultar el paso a google OS suena tonto pero talvez fabriquen el hardware de tal modo q chrome no sea tan compatible como los OS de MS... es solo idea mia
loko08 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 es solo una distro más de linux vOv Rofl, fail, no me habia dado cuenta de eso... am sticking to ubuntu then
vOv Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 dey, puede ser solo un distro pero es un distro manejado/creado por google =p
loko08 Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 dey, puede ser solo un distro pero es un distro manejado/creado por google =p si pero meh... es un distro, no es como main focus... igual es el SUSE... y no es como the next best thing after bread
Streiter Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 Google es demasiado fuerte economicamente y ademas como marca. Por ende, supongo que talvez aunque sea una distro mas de Linux si tendra cierto grado de impacto y sera probablemente mas popular que cualquiera de las distros de Linux que existen actualmente. Esto es algo bueno, porque sencillamente al existir un mayor grado de competencia en la mayoria de los casos implica que el grande tiene que adaptarse para lograr reducir el impacto del que viene para arriba y ademas para proteger su mercado. Esto bajo mi concepto seria beneficioso, talvez no vaya a ser the next big thing, pero por lo menos va a poner a Microsoft a dar mejores productos y talvez incluso a un menor precio.
Lorddarknes Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 lo mas probable es que sea a lo linux, hay ciertos fabricantes de targetas madre que instalan un version de linux en el bios solo para navegar tons me imagino que es algo parecido a eso pero con el logo de google, de cualquier manera es interesante ya que las versiones antes mencionadas son medio propietarias
xyGvot Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 ¿porqué concha OTRA boludez x86? ¿porqué no empujan 64 bits de una vez?
-ooo- Posted July 10, 2009 Report Posted July 10, 2009 (edited) recuerden q MS duerme en la misma cama con intel, no se hasta q punto le podran dificultar el paso a google OS suena tonto pero talvez fabriquen el hardware de tal modo q chrome no sea tan compatible como los OS de MS... es solo idea mia mae ud esta perdidisimo... hasta Intel tiene su propio Linux OS, el cual no es "solo otra distro" como dijo bahdom... El Chrome OS mas bien parece competencia directa al Moblin de Intel, ya que es el mismo mercado target... al igual que Android el OS Linux de Google para celulares (HTC Hero, HTC Magic anyone?) y tablets pc... no es "Solo otra distro"... no creo que el Chrome OS sea "solo otra distro"... igual segun el blog oficial del anuncio el target de este OS son las Netbooks... Pero ojo... hay que tener en cuenta que del proyecto por el momento solo se conoce el anuncio sin embargo en el grupo de empresas que desde ya apoyan y dan soporte al nuevo OS encontramos muchos pesos pesados. "What companies is Google working with to support Google Chrome OS? The Google Chrome OS team is currently working with a number of technology companies to design and build devices that deliver an extraordinary end user experience. Among others, these companies include Acer, Adobe, ASUS, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and Toshiba." En resumen, no es "solo otra distro".
