They must include all of the Google search function into it, like an email client that only reads GMail, browser with build in GoogleBar, build in desktop search and all that, that's the only way they make money. However, conincing people they should change their entire OS just because it has some Google functions build in is ridicilous, that's why i say hoax.
Finish the problem

Hmm... shouldn't they be concentrating on completing their current projects rather than starting new ones? :dodgy:

Gbrowser, Gmail, Desktop seach, Froogle and so on. :)
No, I didn't search before
posting. Don't bother asking.

Maybe this will give Linux that boost to the general public they want
Funny.. reminds me of somethign I've heard in the past years everytime a new version of Linux was released :p. I don't know if it's true or not but if it is, it's a mistake and they will fail as all the others have failed before (I'm taking about making a real user friendly OS here, not a server related one).

I think Google is trying to flood every one with there programs so when people go to get a OS, email, desktop crap or even search for something they will think Google. It sounds like what Sadam Husane did, he brain washed his people into thinking he was the one and only and that you must die for your country and be a phyco suicide bomber lol.

Google very doggy :mipdodgy:
Google Spying on us :mipdodgy:

Gentoo linux, imo, has a real nice UI and is very friendly to the public but lacks publicity. At the end of the day hardly anyone uses Linux as a primary OS for everyday tasks and playing around due to compatibility and unpopularity mainly. If Google can do this and make a real nice Linux based OS, I think we can see your everyday computer user giving it a go...

When I think of Linux I think of that as the second Os option that why I won't ever use it and I bet thats why some other people don't use it as well espcially n00bs most of them think only Microsoft make Os's.:^)
