gOS

It seems right now the majority of visitors to my blog are interested in Linux. I think the most interesting development in the Linux community is gOS, an operating system based on Ubuntu 7.10 and Google utilities. The main message here is that you have the ability to move the processing power in your system from the PC to the internet. Let the World Wide Web do the work for you. Of course, we're not limited only to using the web. We're also provided with some useful "non-web" freeware products like OpenOffice.org, Xine (for DVD playback) and so forth.

The most fascinating part of this development is the gOS partnership with Everex computers and Wal-mart to put forth a computer that will compete with Mac OS X and Microsoft Windows XP/Vista.
