"Hackers have a hard enough time with a full
version of Linux, let alone a pared down version with only a secured
browser running as the interface," said Linux Rants blogger Mike Stone.
"All the potential options from Linux? They are gone. The hackers
couldn't get in when they were there -- they have no hope of getting in
now."
Once upon a time there was a modest young operating system named "Chrome OS."
It tried to live a quiet life helping others, but its ancient roots
made some in the mainstream computing world wary. Not only was it one of
the first examples of a new type of operating system, focused as it was
on the browser, but it was also descended from Linux, the very name of
which was still widely misunderstood among the masses.One day, however, young Chrome OS was given a chance to prove itself. In a contest previously focused on its browser cousins, Chrome OS was invited to compete against the world's toughest hackers in the illustrious Pwnium 3 competition.
