Microsoft, meanwhile, has a similarly grand vision of connecting all your devices with its Live Mesh platform, but it isn’t focusing on mobile, and the realization of this goal is a long way off.

Doesn't internet operating system mean something that runs ON the internet, not something that runs the internet. Are you saying Google's OS is Apple's WebKit or are you saying Google will replace the internet with linux? This really makes no sense. ".....oh yeah Powered By" Kool-Aid.
