We at
CloudGlow.com spent some time over the weekend to run "Google Chrome OS" (or what Google calls Chromium version 4.0.253.0 inside the virtual image). From what I could tell, it is either a very sophisticated browser or a very simplistic OS... either way, it is something new and different as expected from Google. It has little to no configuration in its current form. It does come with
Flash Player 10 installed by default in its browser. I did not check for
Silverlight ;)
You need a Google account to login into the OS, and we promptly created a throwaway one to test it out!
Here are some screenshots from our session:

Here are a couple of configuration dialogs (for people who cannot live with too much simplicity):
One more:
There is not much more to it... don't believe? Try it out for yourself!
