I think it's important to not compare this to Windows. Windows is such a complete disaster on so many fronts of course ChromeOS seems like a better idea. The problem I and other have with it is "ChromeOS isn't really a better idea when compared to other operating systems." It's more crippled then iOS and Android for gains that aren't significantly better. Sure Chrome maybe a better browser but that's just a matter of porting Chrome not a new OS.
