GigaOm has a good report up on Google's quarterly earnings call, where CEO Eric Schmidt talks extensively about plans for Chrome OS, the company's upcoming open source operating system aimed at netbooks. As we discussed here, steering people toward Google's advertising network is a primary goal Google has for Chrome OS, and Schmidt directly confirms that. He also talks about speed as a focus: "Our primary focus for that product will be speed — in particular speed of boot and speed of computation, and seamless use of all the web services that are the promise of cloud computing."
