Exactly. One of the many reasons to go with Linux or XP on a netbook.

GoogleOS IS Linux. Currently it's Ubuntu.

I've got it running in a VM and after you figure out a way to get past the browser and into the OS, it's a pretty standard installation of Ubuntu.

Basically it's just Linux that boots up into the Chrome browser instead of a desktop. Just like a Cisco router boots up into a proprietary application rather than a Bourne shell.

Yes, as Anderiod for smartphones is Linux with Java.
It is something to be careful of and I would run a “generic” version of Ubuntu — not one from Google.

What is the underlying OS of a Cisco router? Some flavor of UNIX?
