Google just launched a new type of laptops, the Chromebook, using the new Google Chrome OS. This means no programs, no desktop, and nothing to start up. Which will allow the laptop to boot in less than 8 seconds, doesn't require updates or anti-virus since google promises that it's built in security is enough. The web, rather than a local hard drive is also used for storing data, files, music, documents and videos. Which means you will never lose anything since everything can be accessible online.
