ChromeOS - just like I dreamed back in 2006

Google has unveiled its upcoming browser based operating system, Chrome OS. If you haven't seen it yet, here's a video: (via Webrazzi)



It is pretty similar to what I described 3 years ago on ReadWriteWeb: GoogleOS: What to Expect. In this article, I was proposing 3 scenarios, but my pick was the ByzantineOS one, which pretty much resembles to what we see today.

I'm eager to download and give it a try.  Did anyone see it live, is dual boot hassle-free? I don't think I can give up Windows right away - which also makes me think Google may either offer a Windows in the cloud service (or let Microsoft do it via Azure) or  acquire virtualization technology inside Chrome OS.

You need a netbook to be able to fully test its all features. If you can find one, my Ubuntu is ready to compile the image ;)
Great writeup! However, the link is broken: http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/googleos_what_to_expect.php
