Sell a well built MozBook with 4GB+ and a full HD screen and some nice extras like a backlit keyboard for double the price of a typical Chromebook and I am in. Perhaps. I probably would not have to queue for it. Mozilla are facing some real problems I am afraid and they aren't technical ones. They aren't the default browser on any significant platform so for people to switch they need to have something wrong with their existing browser. That is decreasingly the case with IE which has improved considerably and then they have to be the best alternative browser available which for many people is questionable. Going the platform route is interesting but they are competing with Android with a massive installed space at the low end. The elephant in the room is the Chromebook which I am writing this, and most everything else, on and the trouble with the damn thing is it is good enough. Not stunningly, mind blowingly amazing. But good enough and selling by the millions. And chrooting it and installing Firefox is not a typical scenario.
