Even before Google hired away from Microsoft one of the preeminent developers of Windows a couple of years ago, speculation over when and whether Google might launch a “GoogleOS” has been rampant. (And is still ongoing, in spite of the Google brass’ attempt to throw cold water on the idea.)
However, I haven’t seen Microsoft observers mull a similar question: What if Microsoft were to do something similar? What might Windows look like if it were available in Internet-service form?
