Google Moving Away From Windows?

It looks like Google may be instructing its employees to choose from only two Operating platforms going into the future: Linux or Mac OS X. Noticeably absent is Windows, which is kinda feeling a little left out of the picture. Google is citing security concerns after their servers were hacked in China. Could this also be a move, though, to signify that Google's own forthcoming Chrome OS is ready for prime time? Certainly their employees are no strangers to the open-source nature of UNIX-based systems, given their product in the smartphone marketplace. However, a move like this could very well mean just that for the larger picture. We'll see what the latest developments bring forward in the near future. Stay tuned.
