Google’s Newly Developed Chrome 3.0 browser with New Features

Google’s going release Chrome 3.0 browser which can help bring big changes to the evolving browser market.

Chrome 3.0 browser promises improved performance and a host of new features. Chrome holds about 3 percent of the global browsing market, according to July data from Web metrics company Stat Counter. Now several factors are working in Google’s favor. The browser has seen significant growth during its first year. Google just inked a deal to have Chrome preinstalled on Sony Vaio PCs and is actively working to secure similar arrangements with other manufacturers.

Plenty of people tend to use whatever browser comes on their system by default, so having Chrome in front of their faces could put Google in a powerful position. The debut of Google’s Chrome OS, which will ship initially on netbooks, will only add to that effect. Internet Explorer the long-reigning king of the browser market has lost 12.4 percent of its user base. Firefox, at the same time, has grown its share by 17 percent, while Opera has nearly doubled its position. Certainly Chrome is in a position to take advantage of browser market.

Windows 7 upgrades can take up to Longer time depending upon the data

Microsoft has said that some in-place upgrades from Windows Vista to the new Windows 7 may take some users over 20 hours to complete.

Chris Hernandez, who works in the Windows deployment team Said that the best that users can hope for is a 1 hour and 24 minute process. So-called clean installs, where the user overwrites an existing edition of Windows to end up with the OS, but no former data or applications, take less time: from 27 to 46 minutes.

One of the main goals with Windows 7 in general has been to be better than Vista. As part of the Windows Upgrade team we have tracked Windows 7 upgrade performance using Vista as our baseline comparison. The in-place upgrade from Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) to Windows 7 at least 5% faster than an in-place upgrade from Vista SP1 to a new copy of Vista SP1.

Windows 7 upgrade time is faster or equal within a 5% threshold to the Vista SP1 upgrade time.

Hernandez said the in-place upgrade times were obtained from lab machines in three different configurations: labeled low, mid-range and high-end — with three simulated users: a medium user, a heavy user and a super user. The profiles differed in the amount of data and the number of applications that were on the PC before the upgrade to Windows 7. The medium user profile, for example, assumed 70GB of data and 20 applications; the super user profile, on the other hand, contained 650GB of data and 40 applications. Microsoft’s data showed that so-called edium” users, those with 70GB of data and 20 applications would spend between 1 hour and 40 minutes and 2 hours 50 minutes doing a 32-bit upgrade. The more powerful the PC, the faster the upgrade, according to Microsoft. Heavy users: which Microsoft posed as people with 125GB of data and 40 applications, would need between 2 hours and 40 minutes and 5 hours and 43 minutes to do the same upgrade.

Nokia smartphone on line-up to better compete with Apple and put a price on the new laptop leading its foray into the fiercely-competitive netbook market. Nokia has major challenges on developing user experience, and might have to wait for a significant improvement until the second half of next year. Nokia has seen its profit margins drop over the last few quarters as handset demand has slumped, and analysts have worried that entering the PC industry, where margins are traditionally razor-thin, could further depress earnings. Nokia had to do it. You see more and more PC guys getting into the mobile operators

With the move into laptops, Nokia is crossing the border between two converging industries from the opposite direction to Mac-maker Apple, which entered the phone industry in 2007 with the iPhone.

The handset announcements, the latest moves by the Finnish firm to match Apple’s innovation in a sector switching focus to services and software, left some analysts unimpressed.
