I don't see how turning your PC into a dumb terminal could be

I'm not storing my stuff on Google's servers.
My impression is that the "Chrome OS" will allow you to avoid just
what you say above. It is an actual OS, although probably "OS lite"
would be a better term.
...and Google already have one. It's called Android, plus there's gOS
which Google had hefty input into. And there are miriad other Linuces
and BSDs to try, up to and including Darwin/OSX. So I'm with Will (you
can pick yourselves up at your leisure). Don't see the point of
Chrome, except to leverage Google's brand and no doubt increase the
amount of data they have to analyse on the way we use PCs...
