Google Chrome OS: Taking a place in the market

Google Chrome OS was first thrown into the computing world several years ago with the prototype reference notebook, the CR-48. Since then, It has come a seriously long way in terms of feature set and supported hardware devices from various manufacturers. 

I decided it was about time to re-evaluate the position of Chrome OS and Chromebooks in the current market with the rise of cloud based services and web apps. Of course, this OS does only appeal to a limited market - but sales figures and the world of media has assumed Google's very own OS a solid place in the world of modern technology.

The benefits and drawbacks have to be closely examined, for example the current support for offline editing of office documents - but overall the experience is getting better by the day, almost down purely to third party developers.
