This so called google os...

currently only runs in virtual machines called browsers. Actually, it looks more like a presentation module, also called a gui. The question is if they manage to make a kernel that supports the users' hardware, like in the form of a linux distribution, then could we start calling it an os or it still remains a service? Imho, for most users the difference between a distributed os and a network service is starting to blur.
