ChromeOS windows do everything Redmond windows do.
They do not look like windows, they look like browser tabs. Because they are. Until they look like _Windows_ windows and include all the same functionality, many potential adopters will be needlessly alienated.
It is clearly an illegal product tie, but somehow they are allowed to do it.
Corruption?
Since computing is moving to tablets and phones, can we get OS refunds for iDevices and Android tablets and phones also ?
Also, is this applicable to Macs?
Of course you can. Apple and Google sell their respective operating systems for... wait for it... zero dollars and zero cents per copy. You are entitled to a full refund.
That makes my little Chromebox that much more awesome. Redmond be very afraid.
Remond has no reason to be afraid until it gets movable, resizeable windows.
A replay of the cold war would end with Russia further fracturing into its component states, many of which already exhibit separtist tendencies
...most of the First World countries are going to immediately join forces to invade and permanently occupy Russia....
What would be the point in doing that instead of just using economic power to drive Russia back into the economic stone age like North Korea? Sure, Russia has petrobucks but its fragile economy is only a little larger than Canada's. A strict economic embargo would destroy it.
...there are plenty of rumors about regular Russian forces fighting in Ukraine.
Got anything better than rumors?
