Link to July 12 New York Times article, "Google’s Chrome OS: Reaching for the Cloud".Excerpt: But what if a computer were nothing more than an Internet browser — a digital window pane onto the Web? You could forget about all the software that now powers your computer and everything it does. All of those functions would be done through the Web. And none of the information that’s now inside your computer would be there anymore. Instead, it would all be on the cloud of connected computers that is the Internet.
This has been the tantalizing but elusive vision of technology luminaries since the Web emerged in the mid-1990s.
