I find one thing a bit unbelievable. The author says Chrome OS is meant to kill Windows. I don't believe Chrome OS is meant to kill Windows...From what I read it is more of a new style of platform developed for Netbooks and less powerful devices. There is no way that something like that could kill Windows in my opinion. Aside from that, I really don't believe the anything happens when Apple passes Microsoft. Some of Microsoft's bigger innovations aren't out yet, such as their new Mobile 7 phones and even Project Natal, which comes out for Xbox 360 later this year and could give Microsoft a big Holiday stock push.

I would suggest reading innovators dilemma, todays "less powerful devices" can very quickly become what everyone is using tomorrow.

It's more likely that Windows, when it finally does die, won't die because of a single product like Chrome. Rather it will die slowly of a thousand cuts.
