Submission + - ChromeShell gives windows the functionality of Chr (inthebinaryrefinery.co.uk) 1
An anonymous reader writes: An effort to turn a normal windows installation into a chrome OS like operating system has come to fruition in it's first release. The complete shell replacement stops the default desktop loading at boot time and instead replaces it with Google's Chrome browser (allowing the user to load the normal desktop later). Standby to browser times of 3 seconds have been reported.
