Chrome OS

Chrome OS is a new operating system that Google will be putting on the market in about a year. Google is already branded really well and is well established in the search engine world, so they might do really well with this new operating system, but it just depends on how simple and effective it will be. Because of Google’s initial marketing approach in starting their operating systems on netbooks, its impact on education will probably be slow at first. Most educational research done on the computer is done from an already existing pc that has windows. Until current networks of computers used in schools become obsolete and need to be replaced, Chrome OS will not have the opportunity to compete against windows. If they want to make an impact, they should give away computers with their operating system to children in the schools.
