Actually, what would blow the whole thing wide open is if Google were to  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
It all went well until you got to "Chrome OS"  Qbt | 10/27/09
Chrome OS  WarhavenSC | 10/27/09
Until the product ships and is supported by its vendor, it's vaporware  de-void | 10/27/09
This is quite a bit different. Chrome OS is based on standard components  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
So what you are saying  ITLeader | 10/27/09
No, any company building a project from scratch, vs proven technologies  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
still vaporware  ITLeader | 10/27/09
Well, this is very different that if they were designing an OS and browser  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
@Donnie: Whether they create ChromeOS from scratch or not is irrelevant  de-void | 10/27/09
It is VERY relevant in evaluating when it will arrive and if it is even  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
@Donnie: Show me the link to the official download  de-void | 10/27/09

@WarhavenSC: Thanks for the link, but ...  de-void | 10/28/09
@ ed-void -- I think you're right  WarhavenSC | 10/28/09
@WarhavenSC  mathcreative | 10/29/09
Who said Google wriote ChromeOS from scratch? Not me!  de-void | 10/27/09
Nope, Dell must handle 100% of the customer interaction. MS ONLY supports  DonnieBoy | 10/28/09
@Donnie: Not sure why you're not getting this:  de-void | 10/28/09

AAAAAMMMMMEEEEEN - and don't forget the Google KneePads - nt  socialism=nowhere | 10/28/09

Also do not forget NeatX. Google will also be able to sell apps that run on  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
They can do this now  de-void | 10/27/09

Well that's a pretty silly assumption, @Qbt  UAC nanny screen | 10/27/09
Google can pick up where 3Web left off in the 90's..  daftkey | 10/27/09
Google will NOT do that. Of course there will be adds along side search  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
Google's business is already centred on ads, Microsoft's isn't..  daftkey | 10/27/09
Google will continue to grow because of all the new mobile, location based  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
"Google does a lot more than just search". They do?  de-void | 10/27/09

Well all of those XP users...  mrlinux | 10/27/09
True, but, Microsoft and Windows will at least be brands that they are  DonnieBoy | 10/27/09
