Cloudless Google Chrome OS

[HappinessNow]

Would you use it?

Its impossible to know.

Cloud is what Chrome OS IS, or...will be, according to their blog post...all it is is Chrome Browser running...and that's it. That's what they say anyway.

Actually, just realized the beta is out...will comment once I've tried it.

I doubt this is the actual Chrome OS.

Same doubts here, from the Screenshots page, it looks like it's just some distro with Chrome preinstalled

FAKE!!!!!!*
*Note: I don't know if it is fake or not, however:
A) It has:
GNOME 2.24 desktop environment
OpenOffice.org 3.0 office suite
GIMP 2.6 image editor

Chrome will not have OO.o, and probably not GIMP or GNOME.
B) Still have seen nothing in the media about this.

Edit: Damn, beat me to it.
