Hewlett-Packard is considering replacing Microsoft's Windows operating  
system with software developed by Google in some mini-PCs called  
netbooks, said people briefed on the matter.

H-P, the world's largest PC maker, has programmers testing Google's  
Android system -- originally designed for cellphones -- for a  
potential netbook. H-P hasn't decided whether to bring an Android  
netbook to market.
