Now,in my opinion, Google makes a bold move to change the rules and re-define the playground - if webapss need to run on the desktop, let's make the browser the new desktop.On the same note, it is probably good time to provide a link to a presentation on the future of PCs I’ve created in 2007, which highlights some of the trends that are more apparent today in moving to the cloud
What makes me say that? because it is focused on application (see the comics),because the browser runs each tab in its own process, because it has a process monitor, because it is a link on the google home page... From the chrome "OS" point of view we can look at javascript,HTML etc. as the IL (bytecode in java speak) on which the application run. This makes cross-compilers like GWT and the good side of MS Volta (vs. the bad side) the next abstraction layer. I expect these will be more significant in the future
