Google Rumour after rumour and story after story talk of Google wanting a piece of the netbook pie, the only pie in the computer hardware business that still tastes any good. They are supposed to bring Android, the phone operating system based on Linux and a modified version of Java, to netbooks in order to compete with Windows. Analysts are torn about whether or not Android would have a chance.

ARM netbooks could bring Android out into netbooks more.

Lets see MS/Intel remove from restrictions on netbooks (resolution, HD size, graphics power, etc), and ARM's linux based offerings with real battery life and thin designs and see what happens.

Just give me a *BSD/Debian/Android based netbook with a fanless, thin design, HD capable processor & screen, and at least 40gb of storage.
