Just wondering if anybody had given it a try and how they liked it and what they thought of it so far? Is there a liveCD download we can try? I saw one at GDGT but don't know if I want to download it yet or not.

This customized version is worth a look, in my opinion:

the one at gdgt isnt a livecd.
its a vmware image.

ive tried it in the past a few times, but due to comcast throttling my internet, I dont download the code and compile it anymore.

Yes. Think Chrome web browser, but without the ability to minimize it and run anything else. That's Chrome OS. :)

It's evil. I found it a total waste of time. The above comment about says it all.

With all due respect, IMO it's rubbish. :-\"
