Chrome OS will run only on devices specifically manufactured for it and Google is dictating to manufacturers the hardware specifications. For instance, Chrome OS devices will be netbooks, will not include a hard drive, will have only solid state disks, will rely on specified WiFi chipsets/adapters for connectivity and must have full-sized keyboards, says Sundar Pichai, Google's vice president of product management. http://www.itworld.com/hardware/85455/5-best-and-5-worst-features-google-chrome-os#comments Hardware Mobile & wireless Networking News Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:40:15 -0500 ITworld staff 85455 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/networking/85448/bmc-takes-service-desk-cloud-salesforcecom BMC and Salesforce.com partner to deliver BMC's Service Desk Express on Force.com platform. http://www.itworld.com/networking/85448/bmc-takes-service-desk-cloud-salesforcecom#comments Hardware Internet Networking SaaS Software News Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:10:06 -0500 ITworld staff 85448 at http://www.itworld.com
