Chrome OS based on the Chrome browser. I'm not sure how you base an OS of of a browser but I guess they're targeting netbooks so it kind of makes sense. It'll be open source later this year.

suggest gmail features -- not to tell people how to vote or anything but i highly recommend voting for "sorting by size" so you can delete large messages to clear out space. I'm only using 22% of my (now) 7382 MB but my usage definitely goes up faster than my quota.

chrome's javascript engine is freakin l33t. This doesn't work in IE8 and it looks terrible in firefox but man how deliciously evil it looks in chrome. no images were used in the depth of field demo. :O haha this one is fun too!

Google held a press conference for Chrome OS today. Cloud computing doesn't seem practical for an os but I guess it makes sense for netbooks where the primary use is browsing the web. I wonder how well it'll perform in an offline mode.bill apparently later versions of firefox have a js engine that can handle those demo apps fairly well. I guess my friend had an older version because it seemed like it was running at 3 fps.
