Today the ol' Cr-48 was updated to Chrome 22.
It's been over two years since I first tried Chrome OS. The Dell Inspiron that was my first test subject has since died (too many Linux > Chrome > Windows > Linux cycles, probably). It's in the great recycling bin in the sky (which, inadvertently, is located at Best Buy). I also tried it on a friend's laptop that refused to run Windows properly. She might have liked Chrome in its current state, but back then it was all Hexxeh. Hasn't changed too drastically, but there's definitely much more that can be done on it now.
I'm definitely loving the Drive sync.

This one is from today, transferring these screenshots from local to Drive. |

This one was from May, when Drive first showed up. |

I thought that this was a clever way to make it work. |
I also noticed today that the login screen now shows my wallpaper, instead of the blinding white background. I think my touchpad is either error-prone or is on its way out. Sometimes it takes multiple presses or taps to register a "click." However, this usually happens when some heavy pages are loading (Google+, HuffPo, Mashable, the Verge).
I've been very tempted to buy an upgrade Chromebook - or better yet, that Samsung Chromebox. That thing would be great on my TV :-) But $329 vs. a $99 Vizio Google TV is a tough decision. Better yet would be a $300 Nexus Q that could dual boot. Maybe someday.
I need to try a Hangout on here. It's been a while. I think the plugin might be working again.
I'll leave you with two screenshots:

Old and busted app screen |

New hotness app screen |
