Acer to Launch Android and XP Dual-boot Netbook in August Dual-OS Acer Netbook Gets Release Date

Google has managed to take the tech world by a storm with their latest
Android and Chrome operating systems - if the first was already renowned

expected to take on Microsoft's Windows in the future. Just like
everyone else joining the bandwagon, Acer is rumored to be working on
the world's first Android-based netbook which should see daylight as

netbook that Acer will bundle with both Android and Windows XP —

can always have Windows XP doing the trick for you.

Some would say that a mobile phone OS like Android wouldn't be suited on
a netbook, but given Google's popularity it's probably going to be a

something we'd fall for …
