from the bbc website: "The news could also be a blow to the open source Linux operating system, which had taken an early lead on netbooks, but then lost out to Microsoft's elderly Windows XP." I'm slightly confused: if google chrome is linux-based (which is said everywhere but the bbc-website), how can it be a blow to linux? :/ :p Anyway, it would've been nice if they developed something completely different, instead of making just another linux distro (which it will turn out to be I think). -- ================================================================== Michiel Van Bel PhD student Tel:+32 (0)9 331 36 95 fax:+32 (0)9 3313809 VIB Department of Plant Systems Biology, Ghent University Technologiepark 927, 9052 Gent, BELGIUM mibel@psb.vib-ugent.be http://www.psb.vib-ugent.be ==================================================================
