Welcome to Hacker News where we downvote useful information.

It went gold the morning of the 18th... http://wzor.net/ Build 7600.16835 was voted 100%

Thanks for this, very awesome!

Happy to see the iPhone app will be out soon too. Now if only I'd actually get my google voice invite I signed up for over a year ago...

Actually it does show the desktop, thats how sad it is. The guy made some rainbow colored Chrome OS logo which isn't even correct, google never uses rainbow colors beyond the "Goog…

I thought it was common knowledge that microsoft is announcing the RTM sign-off on Monday 7-13-2009. This has been known for a while. WZor.net has more information but they should …

From google's blog post I'm under the impression that while based on a linux kernel it will have very little actual code from linux. It sounds like they are writing their own versi…

Do you mean the idea of creating their own OS? Or the timing of the announcement itself? Obviously they've been working on this for at least some time now if they are releasing the…

Taken a little bit too literally. I meant that he should share his dilemma with her. How she is a very important part of his life but so is the startup. However even if taken liter…

Will I be able to run Internet Explorer on Chrome OS? Edit: People can't take a joke. lol

The first thing you should do is essentially read her what you've typed here. It sounds like your relationship would benefit a great deal from some openness. She isn't going to rea…

This sounds like Windows Home, Windows Professional, Windows Enterprise and Windows Ultimate... Lent sounds more like a 1 shoe fits all.

It would be unreasonable to say everyone falls neatly into that category. I like the idea. It might make some iPhone owners more likely to lend out their stuff. People that wouldn'…

Checked out Newmogul. Love it. I really love the arc layout. Very little wasted space.

This made me laugh pretty loud in my cube. This is exactly like a lot of the applications at my company. Scope creep really runs rampantly during the development process here.

Lifehacker and Ars Technica are my current favorites. Always looking for a few more good information sources to add to my chrome bookmark bar :) I'm sure there are a ton of great n…

His first mistake was leaving Goldman to begin with. In my opinion Goldman is one of the more evil corporations out there. And there's no better place to avoid their bubble buildin…

I think this resume stands out perfectly for the type of job he's trying to land. Sure this resume falls flat for a company looking for specific skills but I think this is more gea…

A good example of how to do it right. Replies like that will convert interest into customers.

I was expecting an article by someone arguing this point. Sadly it is just a screenshot of a typo on the internet.

This is the first link on google for "delete facebook account" It works. They deactivate your account for 2 weeks and then permanently delete it. Worked for me.

Looks like Microsoft is going to have to come up with a new angle of attack. Hiding $10,000 on an IE-only website doesn't seem to have cut it.

People test antivirus software by throwing a certain number of virii at it and seeing what percentage of those are detected. This is their detection rate. Just because Antivirus A …

Standard executive talk. He's oblivious to the fact that many of the free offerings have higher detection rates than his companies products while at the same time have a much small…
