It’s Official: Google is NOT Planning to Launch a $200 PC

Filed Under: Uncategorized, SEO News

There has been rumours for a while about search engine giant Google entering the PC market with a $200 PC. Google today broke its silence to dismiss reports from America that it plans to launch a $200 (£115) personal computer.

“We have many PC partners who serve their markets exceedingly well and we see no need to enter that market,” a Google spokesman told Times Online. “We would rather partner with great companies.”

The basic premise of Tuesday’s reports in the Los Angeles Times and New York Post - that Google will move away from services to get into hardware or even infrastructure - has been floating around for some time. It was, for example, suggested at one point that the company’s founders were preparing to sponsor the world’s first space elevator. Then came hints Google would invest in “dark fibre” networks - the miles of fibre optics laid in the 1990s, but never used.
