They’d much rather go after the eyeballs that Microsoft doesn’t want and the people that Steve Jobs’ followers have heard of at TED.

Google, at it’s heart, is a libertarian organization when it comes to the economic theories they adhere to. 

They believe the government should stay out of our business and introducing capitalism, transparency and access to new countries, societies and cultures will ultimately have positive effects (both for the company and the society).

This is their thinking, and this is why, even though it’s a less juicy story than the Goliath vs. Goliath thing everyone’s focused on, we should take great interest in Google’s OS play.
