| − | == Overview ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Chrome OS is an operating system built for use of web applications where data is stored in the [[cloud]]. This is in contrast to traditional computers (usually running [[Windows]] or [[OS X]]) that store applications and data on your hard drive.

| − | == Architecture ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Chrome OS employs the [[Google Chrome]] web browser and shortcuts to web applications (usually those of Google's) in place of desktop programs. All of this runs on top of a [[GNU/Linux]], specifically [[Gentoo]], core. It is built to create minimal overhead and allow web applications to be the center of the user experience.

| − | == Hardware ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Chromebooks are devices with (usually) low-end hardware, due to the lightweight nature of Chrome OS. They also contain small storage devices to encourage users to use cloud-based services.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Avoid models with an Exynos CPU if you plan to run a GNU/Linux distribution.
