Imagine all those old Windows netbooks getting a new lease of life as Chromebooks.

@timanderson Yes, but that's specifically aimed at developers, not consumers. -
@bazzacollins true, and it would be interesting to package it up as simple upgrade image -
@timanderson Indeed. There was a project doing just that (http://chromeos.hexxeh.net/ ) but it seems to have died off.

@bazzacollins I did that using an old Samsung NC10 and a ChromeOS build from here: http://scrib.me/UQWxRa A bit out of date now, sadly -
@kevpartner Yeah, shame that project appears to have folded. -
@bazzacollins It was never quite the same experience but I found it useful in "getting" ChromeOS. Even on that old hw it booted in 20 secs
