Google And Apple?

So the CEO of Google is on the board of directors at Apple Inc. (http://www.techcrunch.com/2006/08/29/apple-snuggle…). That’s pretty interesting, but somehow I doubt it will amount to much. Google partnered *officially* with Sun and what came out of that? So Google Toolbars appear in Sun installs… no big deal. While being on the board of directors might push Apple a little, I am pretty sure this won’t amount to much more than a Google Toolbar bundling on Macs, if that. Apple viscously defends its brand image and I don’t think they’d let a third party come in and muck it up, even if it’s Google.
