And yes, who could doubt at this point this would happen. What do we mean? From Google's new commitment to an extension of the markets it seeks to control and an extension of their interests. Is that if you do not, fall behind, and if it does: it loses all won before. Risk-keyword if any in our day-then the strategy is smarter than Google can take.
We are referring more precisely to Chromebooks, the new way Google has managed to enter the handheld market. We have already said something about this blog, but on the occasion of the conference which has Google as the center of debates around the world conference is taking place these days, can only speak of this again.
As is known, Chromebooks are computers that have an instant start and are focused on working in the cloud just lit, not ever cut the connection. As to the application system, say that all will run from the browser. In this operating system achieves its greatest uniqueness.
But this is not the only way to store applications, because they want to use the old way do pdorán storing local applications using certain technologies HTML5. Read more
Google Chrome OS on a subscription
Chrome OS
The people at Google know very well the internal dynamics of the contemporary economy. They know that today we live in a "liquid" as the metaphor of sociologist Baumann. And so its next operating system, which by now was being a hypothesis or conjecture, will be delivered to users via the subscription form. As if it were an old library or video store of HCV, future OS of Google Chrome will be delivered to users on laptops delivered through a monthly payment of an amount of money.
Although until now predominant mode of buying property in which individuals make products after a while replaced by others, the idea of Google is to introduce more efficient and rational mode in accordance with such habits as behind the constant technological innovations.
Now the new payment is granting temporary inward.
Like a rental of a home they were, people must not acquire 100% of the products they want, but may pay a monthly fee to use them when necessary, and after a while, return to manufacturer.

Haiku announces support KDE applications
Haiku announces support for KDE.
Haiku can be understood as OpenSource implementation of an OS as was the BeOS, an OS with excellent performance for the time it was developed. And this last seems to replicate in Haiku, an operating system that gradually gives more and more possibilities.
Thus, system developers have reported in a blog on language daunting - Iltuosistema - that there have been some interesting compatibility with KDE suite applications, a fact that allows, for example, the successful execution of the office suite KOffice. And how have they achieved? Thanks to a version of Qt moved to the Haiku OS platform. Read more
Security Issues in Mac OS X
In Boston, the conference SOURCE, Dino Dai Zovi has made a demonstration on how to break the security of Apple's operating system. To make the show has used the data memory (HEAP Memory) is not sufficiently protected in order to perform the attack. This problem is currently produced in Leopard but it is anticipated that in the next version, Snow Leopard, will be resolved as data memory will be random.
So far Mac OS X is considered one of the most secure systems on the market. However this finding may be that serious attacks appear to Mac OS X.
Curiously the iPhone OS is not vulnerable to the problem described above.

Russia could have an operating system "national" to compete with Windows
This is the headline I see in www.20minutos.es. Apparently Russian President Vladimir Putin wants the government of his country does not lose independence on issues like security and software. Russia pretente create an operating system that meets their own national needs. Also from the telecommunications ministry is making an effort for all Russian schools using free software in 2009. No doubt a great challenge. Microsoft seem difficult times in Russia.
Windows 7 a good OS
We would be surprised if Mr. Shuttleworth of Canonical Ltd chief executive told us that tested the Microsoft operating system-Windows 7 - and you think of a good system, not logically would believe it not for qu

It is no coincidence ... the British navy infected.
Relatively recently, posteabamos news regarding a course that used operating system derived from the British navy Windows XP. Although at the moment we watched the news with disbelief enough, now we see another that makes us believe a little more at first. Apparently a virus has invaded the British fleet, extending out of control so that according to The Inquirer have had to do with mobile communications-mill streams. According to reports from the concerned government weapons systems and navigation is not affected.
We assume that the news will be taken with caution though it seems that it is a joke. Here is the link to the original story for the loss of the less significant (detail) possible:
