Tech Crunch Editor Mechael Arrington on Google Chrome OS

TechCrunch, Michael Arrington quotes Chrome not being an operating system :

Purists complained that a browser isn’t actually an operating system, and brought up mundane issues about hardware drivers, memory, and processor management and other red herrings. Sure, they were right - the Chrome browser isn’t an operating system...

Google just bolted a big ol’ bag of drivers (also known as the Linux kernel) to Chrome and are calling it the Google Chrome Operating System. It’s going to be hard for people to continue to deny its operating systemness now.
