On/off topic:
Chrome OS is useless, I can't think of one good reason to use it, or anyone else for that matter.
I realize there are a few cool things about it, sure, but in reality, it's like running a Netbook, and limiting yourself to nothing more than a Chrome browser. With the exception of some.... what, cloud based services to help get things done..
I just ask myself why? When you can do all that needs being done on a full featured netbook, notebook, etc etc, with far more control, freedom, and the power to do much more advanced things.
Unless people see this as an Ipad-like, accessory, where they use it only to do what it will allow them to, then slide it over to the edge of the desk, and boot up their macbook, or PC, and continue working.
Also, mostly as a joke, if they're dropping their windows-based computers for Chrome OS exclusively, heh, how will they get any work done. I'd like to see them code on Chrome OS :) Day by day my contempt for Google grows. It's safe to say I dislike them more than Apple, and Apple steals peoples money....
I dunno, did I completely miss the boat on this one? Do I just not get it?
OP: Good post, I'm now actually curious, will look into this further. I'm very interested in this huge war, if we can call it that, with them, and Apple, Adobe, the list go's on.
