Hah. Can you...
- Play your music online?
- Play your video game online?
- Type papers online? And no, google apps don't quite cut it :P
- Watch a dvd online?
- Do your taxes (in a Turbotax) fashion online?
Well, none of the above, really. So, whoops! Guess the browser isn't the next operating system!
- nailer 18y ago> Play your music online? Yeah, provided you have the bandwidth. If you don't, any OS has music management software. > Play your video game online? You got me there - not yet. Half life doesn't work in Flash. > Type papers online? And no, google apps don't quite cut it :P You can, but if you don't want to, any OS has productivity software. > Watch a dvd online? Yes. > Do your taxes (in a Turbotax) fashion online? Yes.
- duane 18y agoAnd just where could you store this music? ;) And you can't type papers online. Google apps are so crippled. You can't watch a dvd online last time I checked... ...And I know of no way to do (Turbotax style) taxes online.
- axod 18y agoStore music? huh? * go to one of a billion music playing websites * Search for the track you want * Click play It depends what you mean by DVD. If you're talking about a physical DVD, then obviously no you can't. If you mean play the movie/tv show, then yes obviously you can.
- axod 18y agoThere are about a billion music playing websites that have sprung up in the last few months. Video games, I've not been a PC gamer for a long time, so a wii makes sense for that, although there are a few good games being written for the browser. Google apps works well enough... Sure you can watch DVDs online... I watch TV shows etc in my browser. Seriously, for most people there is no need for desktop apps anymore.
