from the bbc website: "The news could also be a blow to the open source Linux operating system, which had taken an early lead on netbooks, but then lost out to Microsoft's elderly Windows XP."
I'm slightly confused: if google chrome is linux-based (which is said everywhere but the bbc-website), how can it be a blow to linux? :/ :p Anyway, it would've been nice if they developed something completely different, instead of making just another linux distro (which it will turn out to be I think).

Actually if they can actually pull all these things off, I would be very happy to drop windows for their OS on my eeepc.
