I really can’t see what the advantage is of having a desktop within a web browser and having a web browser within a web browser. The approach is innovative, but I’m afraid the speed of the system really does not make it competitive with local/remote desktops and could maybe be useful in emergency situations only. Although I can’t see how, as all operating systems already have desktops…

The advantage of a browser-based operating system should be obvious… You can access your applications and files from any computer and you never have to upgrade your OS. Also, you’re limited only by the speed of your Internet connection, and not by the capabilities of your computer hardware. The downsides of the idea are the security issues. I wouldn’t save anything private or proprietary in a platform like this.
