Lots, but my CPU is over 95% idle so I don't quite see where the huge performance increase is going to come from. It just seems like you could get almost all the alleged benefits of Chrome OS with a simple shell for Windows or Linux that runs the browser and nothing else on login.

It does seem so. And indeed, that's what Chromium OS is. Essentially a new distro with their own browser-based desktop manager. http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chromiumos-design-docs/software-architecture http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chromiumos-design-docs/s...
