Playing with the Google Chrome OS under VMware Fusion.
It's actually a pretty interesting idea, building your entire OS as a web browser. I thought of trying something like this about a year ago, do everything you would normally do, but with web Apps. I didn't have much success with the idea, but I also was not that committed. Plus the internet can be slow and sporadic at times so basing an entire OS around this strategy seems risky. Apple tried it with the iPhone and no one bought it...now there's over 100,000 apps. I think that says something about dedicated applications.
With that said, I think Google's concept for the Chome OS could really pay off, plus if it does then when you program anything it will truly be cross platform, for the first time ever. So I hope this effort make web applications a lot more robust, but It might be a little too ahead of it's time. Or maybe it's not something people will ever get used to...time will tell.
