Waiting for pre-launch (webcast here ) of Google Chrome OS, operating system, Google signed, was very high, but as often happens, expectations are rarely rewarded. Many thought that this was a move by the search giant on the Net to undermine the substantial monopoly of Microsoft in operating systems for personal computers, but what has emerged is far from his debut.
Google Chrome is based on Linux OS (Debian), as expected, but can not be installed instead of Windows, Linux or Mac OS X on any PC: it works only on devices blessed by Google (or a virtual machine in VMWare be downloaded as described on Lifehacker.com ), which for now does not exist but will be substantially the netbook and mobile phones (running on x86 and ARM). The actual launch of Chrome OS will in fact at the end of 2010: today was presented a preview only to smell the scent of what is churned out in a few months.
Chrome OS does not support hard disks, for example, but only those solid state is Linux, but has traditional applications to install, everything happens inside the browser (which of course is Google's browser, or Chrome), nothing local data or so, because everything resides on the Net exists in two versions, the closed source (Chrome OS) and open source ( Chromium ). How much tells
informally explanatory video Google Chrome OS is an operating system whose only purpose is to start as quickly as possible to allow the user to do the thing which is now more than any other computer to: access Internet: in the demo, the boot and loading in all browsers require only seven seconds. The computer essentially becomes a terminal with a few more ornaments. The applications reside in the browser and use the HTML5 to be more powerful and versatile applications via the Web today. There is no Start menu or Dock: all interaction is via the browser tabs, including configuration. The e-mail will consult with Gmail, you edit documents with Google Docs, and so on.
Google Chrome OS is not so immediate for the PC revolution that many expected, but it is a long-term challenge to Microsoft, Apple and the Linux world, because it makes the operating system largely irrelevant for most applications does not require handling of large amounts of data (audio and video editing, for example). All this resembles the story of Netscape, which was irrelevant to make the operating system a few years ago. We know what happened, and there is always the bottom line: we trust to delegate everything, absolutely everything, including our personal data, nostre foto, le nostre mail, a Google?
