Well, what do we have here? The Washington Post is reporting it has reliable intel indicating that Google’s much hyped Chrome OS will be released for download within the next 7 days. Ba-zing. The piece is a little light on fact and high on speculation about the unveiling, and we encourage you guys continue with the speculation in the comments. Would a Chrome OS powered netbook motivate any of you to jump in the market? Or is the thought of a cloud-centric OS a little to much to swallow right now?
*******************************************************
Question is, would you switch?
(I'm super iffy about Google lately ... they have too much info on us already) |

| I'll wait till all the first-on guinea pigs report in. How much can we trust Google to provide a SECURE platform? |

I'll definitely try it out. No harm in having 3 different OS's on my PC.

This is going to be just a google branded linux, so I'm not so sure I will try it. Debian and Ubuntu already have so much support, it seems a bit redundant for the hobbiest to use it.
I think it will be another good OS for mainstreamers, when it comes bundled with a netbook, because they won't know it's linux, just that it is google branded. |
