    Hello Vk3jed!

    I like Linux, but it's still not there yet. I do like
    ChromeOS for most people that only need a web browser
    though.

    I've heard good things about ChromeOS for that use case,
    but have never seen t.

    ChromeOS is a very "perfect for granda" kind of thing.

    I wrote about my experience with it in fidonet WINDOWS some
    months ago.

    Ooops. I meant "grandma".

    The question is does it include or support all the common C library files? Can it compile SBBS?

    That probably doesn't matter for the person who just wants a
    point-n-click OS experience.
