Google and China
I found an interesting article at Emerginvest.com on the Google v. China dispute.
I suggest that you read the article and I mention a few interesting points:
Google's chief legal officer Don Drummond complained that, Google's operations in China were hacked with the goal of accessing the email accounts of Chinese human rights activists.
The conspiracy theorists out there would say that the government was slowing down Google by using their firewall on purpose to aid Baidu's competitive advantage in China since search is all about speed in addition to accuracy.
We know generally that while Google.cn delivers better search results than Baidu, many Chinese continue to use Baidu out of some nationalist pride.
Speculation on my part, but maybe they thought that if they publicly threatened to pull out of China, it would be embarrassing to the Chinese government and the government might cave on the Google.cn issue.

Google New Operating System
Google expects new operating system to be running low-cost computers by 2010 holiday season.
Google set the late 2010 target date during its first preview of a much-anticipated Operating System that eventually may mount a challenge to Microsoft Corp.'s Windows — the foundation for most personal computers since the 1990s.
The Internet search leader announced plans in July for an operating system named after its Chrome Web browser. At the time, Google said Chrome OS would be ready during the second half of 2010. That left open the possibility that Chrome OS computers could be on sale as early as next summer.
But Google is taking its time so outside programmers can contribute to Chrome OS, which is being developed under an open-source model in which anyone can help with development and share improvements. Google also intends to work closely with computer manufacturers to ensure they meet the Chrome OS's requirements.

Windows 7 upgrade
Microsoft's new Windows 7, which goes on sale Thursday, has already scored points for being a better operating system than Vista because it's easier to use and control.
There are a variety of upgrade options, priced from $120 for Home Premium — the version most consumers are likely to want — to $220 for the Ultimate version. (If you're purchasing the full version, the costs range from $200 for Home Premium to $320 for the full version.)
Microsoft has also updated their software Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor two days ago. Consumers organizations advice to use it before upgrading especially if you still use Windows XP.
Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor is a tool that runs on Windows XP and Windows Vista.
It can be used to audit the computer system to find out if it is compatible with Microsoft’s latest operating system Windows 7.
To do that the program will scan the computer system’s hardware and software for compatibility issues. It also offers guidance and explains how to overcome these issues to make the system compatible with Windows 7.
The program needs to be installed before it can be used to audit the system. A scan takes less than a minute to complete.
