Eric Schmidt on Google Chrome Browser and OS

By: Peter Chubb | July 10, 2009 | 1 Comment

Just days ago, Google announced that they were to launch Google Chrome OS. Eric Schmidt, the chief executive of Google has been speaking at a press conference in Sun Valley; he said that he had resisted the urge for six years to build not only the Chrome browser but also Chrome OS as well.

Schmidt must now be looking forward to the challenge ahead, as well as trying to take a huge piece of Microsoft’s market share in the operating system market. Something that Microsoft has a huge monopoly on. The Wall Street Journal has reported that Schmidt said that it was the Google co-founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page who managed to convinced him to work on Chrome.

Way back in 2001, Schmidt had said that Google were just a small company, he added that by witnessing the browser wars it was something that he did not want to go through. Schmidt had changed his mind once Brin and Page hired a few Firefox developers to work on Chrome, once he saw how great the browser his mind was made up.
