Is Google Prepping a Low-Cost PC?
Google and Wal-Mart Stores may be preparing a low-cost PC that runs an operating system created by Google and could be announced as early as Friday at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, according to a report in the Los Angeles Times.The newspaper, citing unnamed analyst sources, reported Sunday that such a Google PC could cost as little as a couple of hundred dollars, or less than the $430 a single share of Google stock is worth today--because it would avoid the need to install Microsoft's Windows operating system.
Larry Page, Google's cofounder and president of products, will give a keynote address on Friday at the annual CES, where many consumer products for the year ahead are introduced. The newspaper said that analysts "suspect" Page will use the high-profile forum to "show off a Google computing device or announce a partnership with a big retailer to sell such a machine."
