Google Rolls Out Storage Services
Google on Friday began selling expanded online storage, targeted for users with large picture, music or video file collections.
The prices range from $20 per year for 6 gigabytes of online storage; $75 per year for 25 gigabytes of storage; $250 per year for 100 gigabytes of storage; and $500 per year for 250 gigabytes of storage.
It doesn’t make any sense at all, does it? Won’t it be better if I were to invest the $500 in a removable HD? maybe I am missing the bigger picture.
Lenovo Linux PCs
Lenovo, the world’s third largest computer maker announced that it will begin offering Linux as an option in its notebook computers, joining the ranks of other computer makers such as Dell. It appears that the market is responding to a weaker Windows Vista.
Looking at the entire scenario from a different point of view, if the market shows a demand for Linux PC, it could signal a desire for a change in operating system or possible an opportunity to purchase a cheaper computer compare to a preloaded windows. Either way, Microsoft Windows is here to stay for quite sometime.
p.s. I believe Acer would be the next company to announce a choice of Linux operating system.
