Five Web Operating Systems You Can Take for a Spin
,----[ Quote ]
| The computers we use to access Web OSs really only
| have to have a Web browser. Since most of the
| computing power is performed by the cloud server,
| the end-user computers can be more basic systems,
| saving us money. Plus, administrators can easily
| control the applications and settings of the
| virtual desktops. This can greatly simplify an
| organization's network setup, especially for
| smaller businesses that might not be familiar with
| traditional virtualization or thin client
| architecture.

Dreaming in the "Cloud" with the XIOS web operating system
,----[ Quote ]
| Of course, XIOS is not a full operating system, as the term is
| traditionally defined. It requires a host OS to boot up and
| launch a web browser before it can start operating. A more
| accurate phrase is perhaps "Cloud OS" because running it
| requires access to the "cloud," that is, a network of
| services and connections that exist on the Internet.
