Kevin Tofel looks at Google’s latest Chrome strategy, and how it hopes to ride over the traditional OS using the Chrome browser on the Windows and OSX desktops:<\/p>\n

In fact, I\u2019d go so far as to say, within a year, many of you will be using a Chromebook. Before you roll your eyes, let me add one caveat: That Chromebook won\u2019t be Google-designed hardware; instead it will be on the Mac, Windows or Linux machine you have at that time. So it won\u2019t be a Google-built device like my Chromebook Pixel is…\u00a0For many Chrome is just a browser. For others who use a Chromebox or Chromebook, like myself, it\u2019s my full-time operating system. The general consensus is that Chrome OS, the platform used on these devices, can only browse the web and run either extensions and web apps; something any browser can do. Simply put, the general consensus is wrong and the signs are everywhere.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
