Actually I *like* MS and it's software, but I'm bored with their lack of innovation, so I'm looking forward to some exciting times ahead...

Its going to be very exciting indeed Robin and looking forward to seeing what Google does next

A Google OS ... Would be awesome!

And to be honest, with their team they have in place I wouldn't doubt it is in the works... Google has shown themselves to be a powerhouse and with such a stronghold on internet traffic, they are more than a force to be reckoned with.

If Google was smart.. They wouldn't make it so much an OS... They would make it something that would operate over windows and basically skin it to have their own interface. From there they could slowly build a true OS and start the takeover of MS once they have shown computer companies their user's dependancy on their product and the need to offer it on computers being sold.
