#2I'll be blown away if HP is actually the first company to put their mobile os on a full desktop computer. I always imagined I would love running something like Android on a desktop; easy to use for everyone, no worries about viruses or software updates, nice modern UI design...really, it's a wonder that these machines don't work like that already.
I can't believe I'm rooting for HP on this one, but I sure hope this works and I hope it kicks ass.

#5It will be so great if HP gets its groove back. It's really sad to see one of the great American companies flounder for so long. Ever since Carly merged it with Compaq they've been basically stagnant, IMHO, I think WebOS might really set them up for a big power play against Apple over the next few years.

#7This is crazy! Say goodbye to HP. Who will be their client base. Google will beat them at the simple platform of straight to the internet! I have the Google Chrome CR-48 and its my first choice to surf the internet.
When there is now an Android phone running Linux when connected to a laptop shell, HP is doing the opposite!

#8I can't wait to see the implementation. Maybe they'll do something interesting like making use of Cygwin or virtualization.

"What I like/think" != "What everyone likes/thinks". This is hardly "say goodbye to HP" material (besides to you apparently).

The only PC I've ever hated was a HP. Overpriced for poor parts, slow as hell for its advertised purposes and using their provided software, and when parts broke I had to pay for special HP parts because they used custom sizing and screws.
