Did you think you had to buy a Chrome Notebook to enjoy the Chromium OS? Think again Now you can download it to your USB pen or whatever and use it on your Laptop. If you are the lucky owner of a Raspberry Pi then you have a rocking combination! You will find the fork here. And it is called Vanilla. Open source is a fantastic thing....Even if some say that this is just a browser with Linux behind it... And it gets better: If you do not like vanilla you can give Lime a try. Do help the dev Hexxeh to improve the software by telling him what drivers you need (If they exist for Linux, he will try to implement them) |

Well, it is in essence, a browser with Linux behind it. The good thing google does, is use Linux. lol.
I may give it a go on the netbook, at a later time.
