I hope you should aqquire Linux and replace Chrome OS to have you an official OS exclusively for PCs' and combine it with all the Features and Design of Chrome OS to become more powerfull than ever, and with also having all the features and design of latest Android and sharing its same code in each other. And I hope Chrome Web Browser would be the official web browser for Linux if you aqquire Linux and also for Android. Please!!!!! Thanks...

And if I wanted to be picky, the Linux kernel belongs to all the
developers who have contributed to it, but it's the GPL that makes it
worthless to buy something which is open source. A few years ago
somebody estimated the value of the Linux kernel in a few million
dollars.
Google Inc would have no trouble spending that figure but even if it
was possible I wish Google didn't do it.
A ton of people that work at Google are developers that contribute some of
that code. No one would want to own Linux, least of all Google, so no
worries there. (Well, uSoft might want to own it... hahahaha)

not entirely true. if you relicensed it to e.g. BSD, a lot of companies
would pay for that access.

it isn't a money thing. I'd bet there is a non-insignificant number of
people who would stick to their beliefs to keep it open.
also, once a release has been made with GPL, that last version could be
forked and kept open by someone else forever.

What Google really should do is merge Chrome OS with Android, in the sense that when you put your Android phone on a dock station connected to a screen, mouse and keyboard, the GUI change to the Chrome OS side, having your notifications popping out on a corner of the screen, just like Ubuntu is doing <http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android>.

I think that there almost everyone wants to join chrome and android ecosystems. It is a long run I guess, but will bet that there is someone working on this in Google.
