No Google OS

Here's some good commentary against a Google OS. And really, people are confusing what an OS is. Any device needs an OS, a browser needs an OS to communicate with the screen, the keys, the mouse etc. When I say "browser-based OS" I really mean an "OS-like" experience within a browser, running on any OS you like. Synk.org is more like a portable computer, device-independant. It's more of a "network OS", but that's also a contradiction of terms of course. "Personal OS" is another wrong saying. Personal space, or app collection is more accurate. "The network is the computer" is even better.
