SYS-CON i-Technology Podcast: Google and Microsoft May Clash at CES

Will Larry Page Announce the Latest Threat to Microsoft's Dominance?

Will Google be subverting Microsoft’s market dominance? This is the question of the hour within the entire technology industry, large parts of which are gathered in Las Vegas for the annual Consumer Electronics Show. Larry Page is expected to make an announcement of a $200 PC that may run an operating system developed by Google, at his keynote speech on Friday, January 6.

Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates spoke at the CES show earlier, touting some new photo-editing tools, a retooled media player, and features of the upcoming, long-awaited Microsoft Windows Vista, formerly known as Longhorn. He also metaphorically boxed company CEO Steve Ballmer in an Xbox game that featured heavyweight greats Muhammad Ali and Smokin’ Joe Frazier.

This and other highlights featured on the podcast. Enjoy!
