Walmart And Google Bring Linux To The Masses

I would have never imagined I would be tying in a title like that. Google and Walmart have indeed put together an Operating System called gOS and are selling it on a computer for less than $200. Personally I am looking forward to those who have never owned a computer before to begin this journey on a Linux-based distribution, however, I fear the backlash when they attempt to put in a their favorite Windows program and it will not install.

I can only wonder what security is included: iptables as a firewall? SECLinux? Automatic updating?

In the near future I may download a copy and write up a review.
