intersting posts on both sides. i could spend hours and hours on this subject, but i would have to say that the most interesting thing to see will be how well google does with the new ebay clone. if google is able to take away a big share from a company like ebay that has dominated the online auction arena, i think any big established competitor should start to worry.

as far as the os side goes, i dont think a free os would lower a pc makers cost significantly in comparison to how low new pc prices are today. with that in mind i don't see a lot of pc manufactures gambling on a non ms os and risk losing customers with a new to market os.
