Assuming you can run all your needs in the browser, this will provide an OS with the browser as a front-end. Think security, speed, less-expensive computers. If you are a developers or computer user who depends on applications to do work which can't be done on a browser, ChromeOS is not for you. I think the idea is that you are not attached to your computer, but you are attached to the information in your computer. If the information can be on the cloud, you can log in to your account in any chrome browser/OS and resume your work from there.
