This is the official thread. It seems that it's aimed for those who just use a computer to search the web. No mention of video game support so far. Overall, even if you don't use Google Chrome OS, it's worth being on the market because competition makes everything better. Ideas will be shared between the new big four OS's (assuming this Google Chrome OS thing works out.)
Features and information
- 100% Free
- Desktop search (http://arstechnica.com/old/content/2004/05/3794.ars)
- Quick boot up
- Companies supporting Google Chrome OS: Acer, Adobe, ASUS, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments.

Should be cool
As a note, I don't think Google plans on replacing Windows Vista or Windows 7 with this. I just doubt they can handle every bit that Windows 7 could. Video games for one is a huge task.
It's more of a netbook OS.
God damn nigger stealing my thread and thunder
you could have just edited my post with the info but no.
fuck you.

It
is a netbook OS, that's what they announced it as...
I say go for it.
I'll remove it anyways in favour of something superior: i.e. runs CrossOver.

Yeah but that's not what some articles are announcing it as.
Like G4 had a poll that said Microsoft, Apple, Linux, or Google.
Oh snap.
I'll probably give it a try. <3
I love Chrome.
