Will It Win The Mainstream Market?

Google is gearing up to release it's Chrome OS, an open source, lightweight operating system, which has created a buzz all over. It is supposed to target the netbooks in the initial stages. The company will be holding an event at it's Mountain View campus this thursday to make a technical announcement on Chrome OS. No one knows whether the product will be a success or a failure, but considering the credibility of Google and also a list of it's "unsuccessful products", it's will be interesting how Google will introduce and balance the upcoming product.

Here is a list of unsuccessful Google products by BlogScoped:

Google Deskbar
GNS, Google Number Search
GoogleScout
Blogger Pro
Google Directory
Google Catalogs
Google Local
Google RealNames Support
Paid Google Videos
Google Related Links
The Google SOAP API
Google Answers
Google X
Whois Searches

See, Google is not as perfect as you think it is But, who knows, Chrome OS might end up being part of the above list, or may even take over the widely dominated Microsoft's Windows OS.
