ASUS Preparing One Google Tablet, One Windows
Forbes is reporting in an interview with ASUS’ Chairman Jonney Shih that they’re preparing their “own iPad rivals,” two models which will launch “in the coming months” and run on Google Chrome (or Android) and Windows.

It’s not like they’re strangers to the Android OS, after all.
