Google prepping touchscreen laptop series?

Posted on February 21, 2013 - 14:45 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

Digital Spy writes Google is preparing to launch an own-brand line of Chrome-based touchscreen laptops:

The Wall Street Journal claims that the web giant's new hardware will run the Chrome operating system and embrace cloud computing technology.

The move would see Google move into direct competition in the sector with Microsoft, whose Windows 8 operating system is designed with touchscreen computers in mind.

Google has already made inroads in the budget computing market, selling around 100,000 $199 and $249 Chromebooks in the US during the fourth quarter of 2012.
