Article Title: Google Chrome OS is a Linux monster. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.
Now, the truth about Google's Chrome OS has been revealed in the world, so we don't have to say much. Why is it a Linux monster (or freak? Where is it?
One day yesterday, different from the past, I did not write short articles, so I was busy reading a lot of Chrome OS documents. I found that Google's ideas are really strange. They don't talk about the version of Chrome OS based on Linux, but only about using some of the Linux kernel code (working with the Ubuntu development team ). Google's goal is to contact a group of hardware manufacturers (including Lenovo) to create a trendy "concept computer" with no hard disk, put all system software into a Firmware (read-only Firmware, which requires Google authentication in advance ). This trendy computer is ready for use (started in 7 seconds) to view, browse, read, and process everything that happens on the Internet (Web pages. As you know, read-only firmware is not afraid of viruses or Trojans. If a virus or Trojan is detected, the system can automatically check it and immediately shut down and restart the system from the firmware. This trendy computer cannot run any local applications. In fact, Chrome is an Internet firmware browser. It cannot run any local software. it is simply a Linux monster (unknown source) and cannot be regarded as an authentic Linux release (operating system ).
In November 19, Google held the Chrome OS concept "Live from event" at its headquarters, which is actually asking everyone (a bunch of confused hardware vendor owners) help Google implement and sell this trendy computer. This computer is expected to be shipped in the second half of next year. I think users of such computers are stuck in Google's "user circle", which is more uncomfortable than ever.
On June 14, November 19, at Google's briefing, Google's top-level Sundar Pichai thanked the Ubuntu development team for their assistance in Chrome computers. At the same time, Chris Kenyon, the main sponsor of Canonical, said right away that although Chrome OS and Ubuntu have the same core components, the former makes sense, ubuntu will continue to serve as a general operating system, running both Web applications and local programs. That is to say, Ubuntu computers can also do what Chrome computers can do, but the opposite is not necessarily true. He said that Chrome OS and Ubuntu give users a completely different experience.
Today, the Family Tree of Linux is thriving and has a complete Family Tree. People don't understand how the Linux tree breeds the Chrome OS freak today. At Google's November 19 briefing, Google's co-founder Sergey Brin wore "five-finger shoes", which looked strange. In fact, it is not difficult to find out that the concept of Chrome has existed. Surprisingly, Google turned it into a strange pattern. As long as Google controls the Chrome firmware (paid Google certification), Chrome computers can be made into a variety of colors. Since native programs cannot be run, Chrome is destined to act as a supporting role, but the Windows and Linux family will continue to flourish.
