I'm curious to see how the new HardChromeDroid division will fare. I cannot imagine that lumping hardware and software together in one division is a particularly good idea, but I'm open to surprises.
- cmrdporcupine 3y agoThey already did, in DSPA. The (dysfunctional) PA that brought out the Nest products, etc. Now they're swallowing Android and Chrome. In theory, this could lead to executing in a consistent way. E.g. not having 5+ distributions of Linux and competing platforms fighting over who will rule on some new product. In practice, it's not going to go well.

- IshKebab 3y ago> I cannot imagine that lumping hardware and software together in one division is a particularly good idea In my experience not doing that is a bad idea. Hardware and software depend on each other. There should be good communication between them.
- brookst 3y agoExactly. This vertical integration is often pointed to as a reason Apple has been so successful.
- HenryBemis 3y agoMy thoughts on this, is how will the Hardware convenience, with the Chrome-track-every-breath will dictate the Android/Operating System. Android as-is does enough monitoring, and reporting back home. I fear it will make it worse for the Android users of non-Google devices, in 3-to-5 years.
