The $199 Google Computer

If you’ve been waiting for Google to launch its own computer and operating system, that day is here.Google Computer

Wal-Mart is selling a desktop computer for $199 running Linux GOS– a variant of the popular Ubuntu but with lots of optimization for Google products.

From the Everex TC2502 product specs:

It runs on the gOS operating system and features the OpenOffice.org 2.2 software suite that gives users the ability to create word processing documents, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, databases and more. Additional highlights include a DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive, Ethernet port and stereo speakers.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • 1.5 GHz Via Technologies C7-D processor

  • 512 MB of DDR2 system memory

  • 80 GB hard disk drive

  • DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive

  • 10/100 Mbps Ethernet

  • gOS operating system

Hmm, if I could only justify the purchase of yet another computer. ;-)

Note: this isn’t an official Google computer, but it’s as close as you can get!
