I'm just wondering how it'll handle real Games. it doesnt, it isnt an operating system. It is basically just an web browser. Google Chrome OS it defiantly revolutionary but i like having programs and a REAL operating system Link to comment

I don't trust Google with my shit. u dont know if they are going to have a huge crash...? programs are just a web app. that is loaded when you run a file. Like if u run a word document it opens up a wed based application that has the capability to run like the Microsoft word program. the big question is... what if your away from the internet? like on a car ride or something. then your laptop is COMPLETELY useless. you cant even do any work or word processing!

I'll read more about it Well i dont think google is trying to beat Microsoft. They are just making things simple for people who want it simple. if they want windows os, they can, but hopefully google os will make people enjoy it Edited November 21, 2009 by Metal Link to comment
