I think Google would do an excellent job but would fight shy of Microsoft as they have lost their way when it comes to anything innovative and have become a consumer of other peoples good ideas. In fact that hasn't really changed much, all their premier sales products wee someone elses once...

Google may possibly go the way of Microsoft when they produce an operating system that is agile (which it will be) but it will be a change and migration process most won't consider so will never achieve Microsofts pervasiveness. Microsft owns the desktopn BUT not in corporates who want a susatainable infrastructure. Windows XP SP2 is in most corporates who had he good sense not to migrate to Vista, which quie frankly, Windows meets the teletubbies. All the song and dance abouit the 'new' Windows 7 is just a fixed Vista. MAc made the smart move to adopt UNIX as its core operating system which has always been a corporate standard...I suppose I am biased as I use Google-everything including purchasinfg storage which when you factor the total cost of ownership is cheaper than the bloated disks you ccan buy (but have o manage, backup etc.) from PC world...
