Is Google moving up to the next step by taking on the consumer market with low-end PCs?
According to the folks at LATimes, Google will be introducing low-cost PCs made in China with a Googlized version of Linux. It will be a Google made operating system that employs a vast array of free membership based services (Server-Side). Some features may include free Gmail accounts, 1 GB of online storage, as well as a host of media solutions (utilizing its deal with AOL).
