Well no great shock that this has happened is it really...:rolleyes:

Wonder how long it'll be before people start getting a bit tired of Google this, Google that...

Google is planning to provide an own-brand Windows-less PC and sell the low-cost system through a partnership with retail giant Wal-Mart. The machine and/or the sales deal could be announced as early as this coming Friday.

So claims the Los Angeles Times, citing unnamed sources. Whether they've seen the text of Google co-founder Larry Page's Consumer Electronics Show keynote, which he'll make in Las Vegas on Friday, isn't clear, but it's suggested that the talk will cover the new box.

A very interesting development indeed! Microsoft have already vowed to "bury" google, so I'm sure they'll be pleased with this ;)

:D

Wal-Mart ... Hmmm, Asda ... oh heck.
