That's some pretty slickly produced vaporware.

What a joke. They decry the need for a conventional operating system, but conveniently ignore the fact that we have advanced operating systems to support things modern browsers require such as:

- accelerated graphics for rich GUI's that perform well
- low latency, high def audio
- font and typography management
- a standardized IO and HID input model to support customer choices in input devices
- multithreading & multitasking
- virtual memory
- private/public key and certificate management
- code signing and encryption
- filesystems, ACL's, etc.
- printing subsystems
- localization and internationalization
- power management
- accessibility for disabled users
- many other system services and libraries
