"Google announced the launch of Chrome OS in 2009, which heralds a cloud-centric operating system in 2010," he said. Unfortunately, the Chrome OS won't be available on a large scale until 2011. Google may release its own Chrome OS netbook next month, and beta products based on Chromium OS source code are ready for trial. However, if you do not want to wait for a final version of the cloud-centric operating system, here are some downloadable, cloud-oriented operating systems available.
Jolicloud
Jolicloud is based on chromium browsers and is the most talked-about cloud-based operating system at the moment. And because it is based on the same browser as the Chrome OS, it is also the most similar operating system with Chrome OS, Jolicloud can support more than 700 network applications.
Jolicloud is one of the top 100 web products of the last year. For more information on Jolicloud, please click: "Http://www.readwriteweb.com/tag/jolicloud".

Summary: Sadly, Chrome OS and Microsoft's upcoming Serviceos (former Gazelle) are now more concerned than the system. There are many other good projects in this field, and if these smaller vendors get more attention and challenge, the Cloud OS battle may become interesting. Also, if you want a super lightweight network-centric operating system, you have a lot of choices to make today.
