you start to wonder why adding a keyboard sudden switches you to a different OS (losing all of the Android apps in the process).
Basically, you can think of ChromeOS as a bare-bones but specially optimized Linux with just one application running on it. (Google Chrome with certain extensions)
It strikes me that "merging" this with Android would be fairly easy! (As far as OS mergers go.)
Now that it's clear that tablets are huge
Yes, but workstations are not going away. Right now, tablets are more about consumption than creation. Cloud-usage patterns are also likely to be huge. I think laptops like the Cr-48 and the Macbook Air are one future direction.
