According to the source, Sony is beginning to install the Google Chrome browser on its Vaio notebooks. This is the first such deal with Google OEM-producers on the way to the overthrow of the monopoly of Internet Explorer at Microsoft. Google has said that now she is in talks about similar deals with other manufacturers of computers, and that the actions of Sony were "experimental", whatever that means.

Brian Rakovski (Brian Rakowski), Chrome Product Manager at Google, lamented the lack of media interest in the browser on the market. "Understanding the shockingly low", "he said in an interview. "This is a big problem that people do not know what is the browser, or as it is evaluated. The problem, of course, for Google, which has so far acquired only a small share of the browser market, but for most people is just a browser window to the Internet, and, in their opinion, all browsers do the same job.

Thus, the browser, preinstalled on a new computer, with high probability will be the browser, from which the user will continue to go online. That is why the ubiquitous IE, which is so often preinstalled in computers with Windows OS, that has led to concerns of antitrust authorities.

Because of legal problems arising Microsoft, associated with IE, the manufacturer decided to build a European version of Windows 7 screen to select the browser, which also includes Google Chrome, so that users can automatically decide to which browser they want to have more business. Google has obviously decided that this is not enough and is going to be more proactive in promoting its browser.
