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. For more on the cloud, including the advantages and disadvantages, see the cloud page. (WORK IN PROGRESS)


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.
