and Google has bundled some common software and made it easy to download and install, I haven't tried it, but it looks pretty useful:

Maybe I'll wait for them to release their operating system. I'm very skeptical this will happen anytime soon. It would have to be built on some sort of Unix flavor and the bottom line is that most of the applications they have built don't have Unix versions. Of course, it is Google, so I'm sure it's on their drawing board somewhere.
