 Google plans to launch its own operating system for laptop PCs sometime in the "late fall," an executive said at the Computex PC show this morning. Reuters reports that Sundar Pichai, Google's vice-president for product management, did not say which month, only specifying the "the North American autumn or fall period." The good news for Google is that it's had quite a bit of success getting consumers to adopt its first attempt at an operating system – the Android OS for mobile devices. It's actually outselling the iPhone in the US Taiwanese computer manufacturer Acer will announce netbooks that run on Google's Chrome OS at trade show that begins on June 1, according to a report from VentureBeat. Netbooks running Google's mobile operating system, Android, are also expected to be released in the near future. Ultimately, however, VentureBeat speculates that Google will push Android for tablets (and, of course, phones), and make Chrome its browser of choice for netbooks and smartbooks.
