I'll be happy if chromebooks take say 3% of all PC sales, not including laptops. That's one for the good guys, that won't be using Windows, Office, Bing or IE, so it's all good.

lol.. my my.. you really need to do research if you want to bash MS.. Chrome OS uses MS patents.. every major manufactur already pays MS for the use of Chrome OS...

That's fine.  Google is going to be ramping up its research and development once its revenue grows larger.  I am betting that by the time it is as large as MSFT in terms of revenue, that it will already be doing more R&D than them, so to eventually stop this. 

I mean google cares about its IP defense, i mean they bought a bunch of IBM, Kodak, Novell patents, Motorola, etc.   They are def willing to put the $$$$ forward bc the ass rape in royalties will keep happening until they can actually be more aggressive in the courts.
