Chrome OS is Coming!

Google continues its march against the Microsoft Monster.

Just yesterday, Google announced it is working on a new browser that is also a new Chrome OS operating system in one!

Even the most powerful computers take about 45 seconds to load up when first turned on. Google's new browser/OS will take only two seconds or so. Wow. http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/releasing-chromium-os-open-source.html

Although the Chrome OS is still not ready for release (sometime next summer) boot-ups are already down to about 7 seconds. Google figures the peeps want fast fast fast access to the Net to do things that they do most: browse the Web and get E-mail.

How do they do this Rich?
The Operating system and browser will not be stored on your computer. They will be hosted in the 'cloud'. As long as it doesn't rain, you should be okay.
