The NYTimes wrote "<a href="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/07/09/the-incredible-shrinking-operating-system/" rel="nofollow">The Incredible Shrinking Operating System</a>" describing Chrome, .Net, Ruby on Rails, Java and Django. Microsoft is offering services like Azure, its ooperating system for cloud computing, and an online <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/online/trial-bpos.mspx" rel="nofollow">Business Productivity Suite</a> that they offer "free" for 30 days or you can Buy It Now but you have to click on the button before you know what it costs (gr-r-r-r, I HATE that!). Did you know that nVidia, the company that makes those great graphics cards, has developed a system that Intel fears? And the ARM chips are the talk of the developers. So much jazzy stuff to choose from! Acer just announced an Android product, but it is a cellphone, not a netbook.

My friend said that she plugs her netbook into a full sized keyboard, mouse and screen and uses it for her computing, which is mostly word processing. I no longer want to get strong hauling my laptop around. Seems like time for me to lighten up, and maybe Chrome is the answer. How long do I have to wait?
