the announcement of chrome os

The google chrome OS has been officially announced to be released in the latter half of the next year.
It seems to be certainly inclined towards the net.This ambitious announcement of the company is already being seen as a main competitor to microsoft though some analysts do state that microsoft will still continue to rule the markets.
I personally feel that this new OS is certainly going to be received well by the people given its net capabilities but windows will continue to be the main OS of the the peole.
