Hello,
I was not aware of this news. Thanks for sharing. I think Google Chrome OS can compete Microsoft OS. People needs something new. Google can give something new. But success will depend on simplicity and features.

It will also depend on the speed of Broadband. Chrome OS is designed to take all your software and put it online. All you will really need is a browser on your computer. You will be able to work on documents, files, whatever online using some host's software and probably even save to a server you subscribe to. What will be key here is the capability of the software and how fast your access speeds are.

With US Broadbands wanting to lower their standards, CHROME may be more of a US Dream and a Foreign Country Reality.

Which Browser Should I Use: Firefox or Chrome?

Dear Lifehacker,
I've been a huge fan of Firefox for years (prompted in great part by Lifehacker's recommendation), but it seems like Google Chrome has made huge strides lately. My question: Which is better, Chrome or Firefox? Which should I use?

Signed,
Uncertain About My Browser

Dear Uncertain,
Yours is a question we've been hearing more and more lately, and with good reason. The fact is, Google Chrome has fixed a lot of problems with Firefox that most Firefox users didn't even know they had, and Firefox is still working to catch up. (Restart-free extension installation, isolated processes that keep one bad tab from crashing the entire browser, etc.) As a result, Chrome's smart feature set has been winning over a lot of Firefox die-hards.

The answer to your question depends a lot on what operating system you're using, so we'll separate our answers for Windows and Mac users.
