Re: Who wants a cloud OS?

The entire premise of the article is personal bias. Calling out Microsoft for being Microsoft, that is Microsoft's desire to keep its customers within the Microsoft ecosystem - tell me what company DOESN'T do that, and I'll sell you a bridge over the Thames for £1.

IBM. Apple. Oracle. Google. Facebook. Ford.

Tell me what company doesn't make an initial sale then try to keep you coming back for maintenance, expansion and future purchases of additional products???!

So Chromebook offers a low-maintenance choice for some users. And Google doesn't try to lock you into their ecosystem, with the added "benefit" of your data being their marketing model?
