Any views or comments on Googles proposed new Op.System using Linux will this really put pressure on Windows.

I think any form of competition is always good for the OS market overall. The main issue with this one I feel is how intrusive it might be and we'll only know that once folks have been running it for a while. Already there are doubts being expressed about privacy and commercial concerns, none of which of course can be applied to the Linux distributions.
