Chromium in Linux is advancing nicely
,----[ Quote ]
| I’ve installed “chromium-snapshot” from Arch’s AUR yesterday (means user
| contributed, unofficial packages), and I must say it’s come a long way. In
| the very beginning, this was described by the devs as a 500MB binary that
| displayed a window. I’m paraphrasing here, but you get the idea. Then it
| developed into something browserlike, but without tabs, or flash, or
| stability. Now it has all those things, plus it actually follows your GTK
| theme. Flash works, albeit a bit buggy. It’s the only thing that has been
| able to crash a page at this point. The browser itself hasn’t died on me yet.

Promises Plated in Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| With the recent announcement of Google's Chrome OS, open source zealots
| everywhere have been licking their lips raw and playing their trumpets loud.
| But is another big corporation going to be a good thing for OSS? We take a
| trip down memory lane and look for whether Google can (or wants to) buck the
| old trends.

Instant-on Linux vendors respond to Chrome OS
,----[ Quote ]
| Instant-on Linux platform vendors Phoenix and DeviceVM have responded to the
| revelation that Google will soon be releasing its own lightweight Linux
| platform. They view Google's entry into the market as a validation of their
| products and they both have strategies for competing with the search giant.

Is Instant-On Chrome OS's Killer App?
,----[ Quote ]
| Much has been made of Chrome OS as a Windows killer, but most instant-on
| operating systems co-exist with Windows. SplashTop, Phoenix Hyperspace, and
| Xandros Presto all can access the Windows file system in a dual-boot mode and
| load Office documents. SplashTop users choose whether to boot into Windows or
| SplashTop. Dell Latitude ON users have a button to load ON instead of
| Windows.
