- jpd 16y agoI think your missing the fact that Emacs wont run on this OS.
- defroost 16y agoEmacs won't run? Then why would I want to use it? What about all my Lisp code? And why on earth do I want to give Google so much control of my OS? And full control of my laptop? Maybe I should just give bots from outer space full control of my workspace.
- richbradshaw 16y agoNot sure this OS is for you.
- krainboltgreene 16y agoWhy is this being upvoted? It neither contributes to the conversation nor is it interesting. It amounts to uninformed opinion dreg.
- PostOnce 16y agoYou can share opinions on HN. It is my opinion that ChromeOS is more than a little likely to fail. There is too much the web can't replace. And the Chrome web app store? Meh. I hope it fails. I'd love to start paying $4 for all those crappy flash/javascript games. "Installing" web pages? Who came up with this nonsense? See. I just shared some opinions. Feel free to share your own. Our opinions also amount to reviews. This is a new product, and we're speculating about how we would review it had we tried it.
- dctoedt 16y agoYou're right, I didn't know that. I would imagine, though, that Emacs will eventually be ported to Chrome.
- patrickaljord 16y agoActually it will run, you can switch to console mode and install any app you want.
- jlees 16y agoYou'll be able to do that within Chrome OS.
