I don't see the point of it. The time of browser based "operating systems" about ten years ago has long gone. And even back then the whole idea was quickly scrapped again.

I see the desktop. But what I really wanted was to install Google Chrome on that Desktop.

This is pretty rad. It's either a convincing simulacra of a linux, or it's a linux? or is there a difference?!

I'm running 40.0.2214.111. I never would have thought to test it on 36!

EDIT: I wouldn't even know HOW to test it on 36... (where do they keep those old ones?)

I would think that an $EMPLOYER that doesn't want to keep things up to date would insist on something like $MSIE7 rather than $CHROME36, haha!

Why doesn't this work on Firefox?

Seems to be working fine in my Firefox 36 on Ubuntu 14.10.
