Just because google only released a windows version when it was released it doesnt mean noone can port it on linux.

also gOS is NOT google OS.]]>Dec 4th 2008 7:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/Dec 4th 2008 7:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/
Just to state how clueless you are, everybody knows it's opensource, but the state of Linux and Mac ports are really really crude right now, as it doesn't even have an interface yet

I'm saying that you can be sure that isn't Chrome, it could be just a image of the browser on a background, for marketing purposes

Go read more before talking bullshit (http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10094939-2.html?part=rss&subj=news&tag=2547-1_3-0-20)

"also gOS is NOT google OS."

You really need to say something like that? EVERYBODY knows that, and that has nothing about I said]]>Dec 4th 2008 7:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/Dec 4th 2008 8:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/
There are more web browsers out there in the Linux world than are available for windows. Common browsers like Firefox, Google Chrome, and Opera are not even the default browsers when you install a Linux Distro. If you use KDE it is Konquer if you use Gnome it could be almost anything.

Until recently major Distros like Ubuntu and Fedora didn't even install Firefox in the default packages it was an additional package you either had to select or download and install.

Under the hood that could be anything. I just think its hilarious how your obsessed with it being Chrome when the Linux browsers will work just as well in an instant on environment and they have the benefit of more time and testing. The only thing I care about is that it isn't Internet Exploder, that's what makes any of the Open Source browsers a good choice.]]>Dec 4th 2008 8:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/
Oh my god I don't believe I'm having a lecture about browsers in Linux! Man I use Linux for more then 10 years now, when we still used Mozilla.. I already used Dillo, Linx, Konqueror, Mozilla, and many many others... So don't give me lessons about that

My point is that this thing is a total fake, because they are showing a browser that doesn't even run on Linux! You can even see Windows gui style on buttons (I know there is gtk themes for this)

And if the browser is fake, how can this video has a minimal of credibility?]]>Dec 4th 2008 8:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/
@NickNick: Chromium is the open-source project on which Chrome is based, but the Linux port is not in a usable state yet. Read: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxBuildInstructions

Plus if you watch the demo on YT by David Liu, the guy from gOS, he says that they've skinned Firefox to look like Chrome (at 0:18):

As for gOS Cloud, if it does as it promises then I wouldn't mind having it. It's perfect for those times when all you want to do is to get online quickly without having to wait for your laptop or PC to boot up. A quick, limited-use OS for when you need to get online in a hurry? Why the hell not?]]>Dec 5th 2008 1:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/04/gos-cloud-instant-on-os-shown-on-video/http://thinkgos.shaze.net/gos-space-20080406-1226.iso

How-to: Install gOS 2.9 Gadgets
Once your download is complete, it’s time to burn it to a DVD and install it. Here’s how…

1. Burn the ISO file to a DVD
The file you downloaded is an “ISO” which you need to then burn to a DVD. Look for a special option in your DVD burning software that allows you to create a DVD from an ISO file. Click here for a list of DVD burning software

2. Keep the DVD inside
After successfully burning a DVD, keep your new gOS Space DVD inside your drive.

3. Reboot your computer
With the gOS DVD inside, you should reboot to see a new gOS menu screen.

Wait patiently while gOS loads up from the DVD

If only they were smart enough and had pride enough not to post their "Idiotic rants" for all to see? But then again, This post would only be 1/100th of the size? And the humorous part of all this is that 99 out of 100 think they belong in the 1%?
Now that is Funny!
