A Less Personal Computer
,----[ Quote ]
| Chrome OS extends this strategy. It will be
| a Web browser running on top of a
| hardware-Âcontrolling Linux kernel, and not
| a whole lot else. Chrome OS should take up
| less than a gigabyte of your computer's
| hard drive, and the operating system will
| boot in seconds. It won't have a "Start"
| button--it will just have the Google home
| page, with links to your favorite Internet
| applications. Panels will appear on the
| side of the main window when you connect
| the laptop to your digital camera or when
| you find a new wireless network.

Samsung looks to quad-core processors and Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| In Samsung's own vision, the main
| technologies would be its own silicon plus
| the Ubuntu Linux for notebooks, and
| Google's Chrome browser/OS. This shows
| Samsung signing up enthusiastically for the
| search giant's concept of a 'cloudbook' - a
| lightweight device heavily geared to web
| access and streaming on the move. Google
| will release its new Chrome OS later this

| opportunities for bringing it to other
| kinds of devices, including ARM-based

Parallels Officially Supports Google Chrome OS
,----[ Quote ]
| Thereâs also a bigger story here: Parallels
| provides the base software foundation for
| many VARs and software developers that are
| deploying SaaS (software as a service)
| applications. Now, that SaaS ecosystem may
| be more inclined to give Googleâs Chrome OS
| a look.

Google talks Chrome OS, HTML5, and the future of software

| EB: The way that we've thought about this
| for a while is if you read the Chrome OS
| blog post that we did in July, and you read
| the Chrome browser blog post that we did in
| September in 2008, they're very similar.
| They're essentially the same thing. And the
| reason is because when we were building
| Chrome the browser, we realized that
| everyone is spending their time online. So
| essentially we were trying to build
| something that mimics this operating system
| feelâthere's a task manager in Chrome, and
| that was one of the early additions to
| Chrome.
