Lots of news on Chrome OS today, but nothing to suprising as far as i can tell. Chrome OS is basically just an operating system than boots straight into a (full screen) browser. All your apps will be web apps.
Seems logical. Most of the time i just boot my computer to get online: read news, read mail, look at pictures, etc.
I see a lot of complaints: not possible. What about desktop apps like photoshop. What about games. What about…
Computers running Chrome OS will not replace your PC. They will not replace all your native applications. Just 90% of the time. When you get online in the morning during breakfast to read the mail and get the news. In the evening, sitting on the couch when you want to watch online movies, read an online book, play some casual games, or get up to date with what your friends are doing on facebook or twitter. All doable with html apps. Especially html 5 apps.
Face it, 90% of the time you don’t need native apps running on your desktop or laptop. You’ll have other computers, maybe tablets, that you’ll only use to get online.
