Chrome OS will basically be based on Chromium OS but with Google branding + apps, at least that's how it is with Chrome, IIRC.

I think you will have to install a small base system basically consisting of the Chrome interface, but I have not read very much about Chrome OS, so I'm not really sure. I guess files, documents and other stuff you create will be uploaded to Gspace.

I read about it some time ago, and IIRC you will have access to stuff offline, the Base OS will be available, installed applications and Gmail, Greader, Gdocs etc. Basically it will have Google Gears integrated. I really don't know if this has changed though.

On a side note Callabero - thans for the .deb for Minefield. I've been playing with it for a few days now and am starting to take to it. Nice ways to customize it through extensions and the tabs are the kind of tabs that Opera, in my mind, should had implemented.

I have been waiting to hear from the N900 bunch to see if they can install it and how it runs on their device. It crashes on my N800 at times but tweaking the speed and all the addons has made it workable.
