    Yeah, that's interesting Lee, thanks for posting. I wonder if Chrome OS will start replacing Ubuntu as the alternative OS of choice on desktops.

    More likely for netbooks or it could become big on tablet PCs. Remember Chrome OS is basically an over glorified browser.

    Thought of a cloud OS gives me the jitters. Entrust personal files to Google? Only be able to use webapps? and how would one close the browser window?

    Can't imagine they'll release it by holiday season 2010. The OEMs will certainly want to do their own thorough testing on the finished product. But who knows...

    Perhaps that is why Google has been in no hurry to make an Android version optimized for tabs.
