Google chrome OS

Google Chrome OS is an upcoming open source operating system designed by Google to work exclusively with web applications. Announced on July 7, 2009, Chrome OS is set to have a publicly available stable release during the second half of 2010. The operating system is based on Linux and will run only on specifically designed hardware. The user interface takes a minimalist approach, resembling that of the Chrome web browser. Because a browser incorporating a media player will be the only application residing on the device, Google Chrome OS is aimed at users who spend most of their computer time on the Internet.





What do all of this? Do you think this operating system will be revolutionary? Please leave comments on what you think.

i actually tried a leaked version, it is literally just a web browser, thats it, so no i dont think it will revolutionise anything.

yes it will be good for netbooks owners who simply want to use it to check email and browse the web, but revolutionary? no.

Google Chrome OS is Linux based, so nothing revolutionary there.

Its just a web-browser with added features. Nothing more.

Whatever it's final outcome, it will be insidiously intrusive.

admittedly the version i used was a very early version, it didn't even have a shutdown button, luckily i was using it in a VM so couldnt do any damage by hard powering down

I guess the leaked version was Chromium OS, not Google Chrome OS.
