Not seen it yet, and although it does look good (and I've heard it is) I can't be arsed tbh =/

Dunno how you people can go to the cinema to watch movies. It's pretty much my least favorite place ever. The prices are shit, you end up paying more than you would for a DVD of the film with the added drawback of only seeing it once and not getting any special features.

Yeah, I guess I get that part. To be honest though when it comes to spending money on watching a film or blowing it in the pub, me and my mates choose the latter every time. Even when I was a wee lad though I disliked the cinema. Would much rather hang out in the park or town or something. If I'm watching a film, I like to be able to take it all in. Not have someone on my left asking me to pass the overpriced popcorn or listen to the rest of the cinema laugh, blocking dialect that I've now missed. Plus don't get me started on people talking during the movie.

I guess it's just me, but I prefer my comfy bed, beer and wide-screen TV.

I have the authority and approval of my partners involved in this transaction to negotiate a suitable compensation for your participation and I propose 25% percent, while we also propose that we receive 75% percent. I urge you to keep this disclosure with the utmost discretion. I await your response via e-mail or you can call me for further clarifications.

I've seen the news on their blog. It's interesting because they said it's based on chrome, so wouldn't it be funny if you could make programs for Google OS using Javascript and HTML?

Another OS? The OS market is spread around enough as it is IMO. Can't they just build a new *nix variant or something?

I think that's what they're aiming for. From what I gathered, they want apps like Google Docs on it (ie web based apps) that can run on all modern browsers.

For application developers, the web is the platform. All web-based applications will automatically work and new applications can be written using your favorite web technologies. And of course, these apps will run not only on Google Chrome OS, but on any standards-based browser on Windows, Mac and Linux thereby giving developers the largest user base of any platform.

It is based on linux?

The software architecture is simple - Google Chrome running within a new windowing system on top of a Linux kernel.

let's hope chrome OS isn't just going to be a glorified linux distro, then.

i dont know if i'd move to it, it would all depend on hard/software support, which google is actually promising a lot of.

Are any of these working for you guys?

Mine may not have been because I am just moving server (from site5 to citricsquids) and changed nameservers earlier.

In other news, I am posting this off my MacBook Pro, just got it back... MMM it's sexy!

Probably had something to do with it since all three are hosted there.

I'm sorry, but that's a lame idea and you're going to fail.

It would be nice to have some sort of NG OS, but you are probably right, not gonna happen. Sent him a link just in case though.

A hash key is the number sign. And I was thinking about seeing it (considering I thought Borat was kinda funny). The one thing I find funny about all this is that at the MTV movie awards, the character who plays bruno came down on a zip line (he was wearing some kind of outfit with his ass showing) and he landed right where his ass was in Eminem's face. Eminem looked Mighty Pissed lol. I laughed for a good time.

*sigh* good stuff
