And here’s more info regarding Google’s ‘unnamed’ Cr-48 laptop. Besides getting 2-years Internet gratis, for 100MB at least, Google’s also providing live customer support for Cr-48 owners, which Google claims to have reached ‘over thousands’ at the moment, and more to come. Google will provide live support for those that receive a Cr-48 and help with any and all issues. However, they fail to mention what happens after the 2 years relationship. Probably another “extended warranty promotion” package.

Besides saying that Acer and Samsung (just examples, there’s others on the wagon too) will have Atom-powered laptops with Chrome OS in mid of 2011, Google also stressed that the laptop will not support dual boot environments in ‘most’ scenarios. Google probably is stating clearly that major manufacturers won’t be shipping laptops with Google and Microsoft operating systems living side by side. And I wonder, is that Cr-48 made by Samsung? The keyboard design looks awfully similar to Samsung’s design, and since Nexus S (aka Nexus Two) is made by Samsung, there’s more reason to believe that this is also collaboration between Google and the Korean giant.
