Did the above image shock you? No, this is not a real Google advert! But something similar may well turn into reality. In this sequel to our original GoogleOS blockbuster, we try to clarify our thoughts on what GoogleOS will look like. You'll have to read to the end for the exciting conclusion, but we can hint that Linux creator Linus Torvalds has a starring role to play. Please note that these are not insider rumors, but just some educated guesses ;-)

In our first article we examined 3 GoogleOS scenarios:

1. It could be a WebOS (a.k.a. virtual desktop), like YouOS
2. It could be a full-featured Linux distribution, like Ubuntu
3. It could be a (optionally BIOS based) portable mini Linux distro, with the sole purpose of establishing an internet connection and then firing up Firefox as default browser.

However our conclusion is that the most feasible one is the 3^rd scenario - a mini Linux distro, that users can very easily install and essentially makes Google/Firefox the default Internet services. Now let's get into some detail about that option...

1) Purpose: Cut the Middleman – Windows

2) Strategy: Spread it via internet ads

3) The Name

4) Acquisition? No...

5) Disruptive Offering
