Google has been slowly building its influence in the PC technology industry over the years, and now with the use of the Android OS as a desktop OS means they may be well on their way to overtake Microsoft.

Matthaus Krzykowski and Daniel Hartmann who are also the founders of mobile-facts took the Android OS and started using it on an Asus Eee PC 1000H. They were surprised at how little change it took to be able to run Android on the netbook, in fact it only took 4 hours of work to put together everything together. What made this possible is that Android is really just Linux at its heart, so it’s common sense that it shouldn’t be too port over to the desktop.

According to Daniel Hartmann who got the netbook running with Android, they were able to have full functionality including graphics, sound and wireless Internet. They said that they had been expecting Google to use Android for more than just mobile phones for a while now, and this shows where Google might go with it.

So as Microsoft rushes to release Windows 7, Google may be using their Android OS on PCs by the beginning of the summer. It’s finally time for a little change in the PC market.
