I'm still confused about Google having Android and ChromeOS...
I use a chromebook all the time and I simply adore the thing. Massively prefer it to Android. But I just don't understand why they'd cannibalise their own tablet sales.. or why they even develop both operating systems
They were aimed at different devices - Android for smaller screen mobile phones and tablets, ChromeOS for larger laptop devices. ChromeOS was originally designed for use with a pointing device and keyboard, rather than a touchscreen. I believe that there's been a move to bring Android apps to ChromeOS with a virtualisation layer, and I suspect that eventually the two OSes will be merged. But they were quite strongly differentiated on release....Quote:
