Cheap Microsoft Office 2007
if you think one particular washington state computer software organization, laptop large dell is coming out using a netbook that utilizes google’s operating system instead of microsoft software program.
google android os was developed for smart phones, but it’s proven attractive to makers of other devices
Office 2010, like netbooks
Office 2007 Standard Key, for its potential to break their dependency on microsoft software and intel chips.
unlike microsoft’s windows application — which most netbooks currently use — android is free. and it runs on chips that use arm architecture, which are made by companies other than intel. as the wsj reported in april
Win 7 Starter, hewlett-packard has been looking at android for possible future netbooks.
so it was with interest that we saw a press release this morning from a software company called bsquare
Microsoft Office Home And Business 2010, which said it’s coming up with a system to use certain adobe systems application on heretofore unannounced “dell netbooks running google’s android platform.”
update, 2:30 p.m.: dell and bsquare now say the announcement of dell’s allegedly forthcoming android netbook shouldn’t have been made. dell spokesman andrew bowins said the press release was published “in error,” though he didn’t deny — or confirm — that the laptop giant is working on such a device. “dell constantly assesses new technologies as part of managing our product development process and for consideration in future products,” he wrote in an email. a bsquare spokeswoman also said the press release was erroneous, though she didn’t specify what was incorrect about it.
