Google’s GDrive (aka G Web Drive), Microsoft OS and download

While the Google “GDrive” or also known as “G Web Drive” is still an unconfirmed rumor, it seems to be one of these rumors that have so many leaked bits of news that it seems very real.

Fox News said that Google’s official word on G Drive is one of silence but they have confirmed the need for more cloud computing services, which is what G Drive is all about.

FN went on to say that this new service could come in 2009 and that it’s the “most anticipated Google product so far” with the ability to kill off the desktop computer.

The reason GDrive is such bad news for Microsoft’s Windows OS is that it favors using data centers for processing and storage (cloud computing). Meaning a powerful computer and hard drive is not really needed.

If GDrive takes off then users would see a computer as software rather than hardware, you would use it as a portal to the Web. If you ant to hunt the rumors down then you may find this interesting “Google Web Drive and Cosmo Discussed in Deleted Document”
