Google may think that the most important application for any operating system is a web browser. But while Google’s approach is to build an entire OS around the browser, others have taken a simpler approach. BrowserLinux, for instance, is basically a stripped down, Linux-based operating system designed to run just a few programs including a file manager, audio player, and Firefox 3.5.5.
BrowserLinux is based on Puppy Linux, which was already a light-weight Linux distribution. The latest version is just a 78MB download, and you can easily install it to a USB flash drive using Unetbootin. It might be a good idea to try booting from a flash drive before installing the operating system to your hard drive. Because while a browser-only OS might sound like a good idea at first, odds are you’ll run into something else you wish your computer could do before too long.
If not, then by all means, install BrowserLinux to your hard drive, because I’m pretty sure it will boot a lot faster that way. Loading the operating system from a flash drive can easily take a couple of minutes, during which time you’ll find yourself wondering why you’re not just booting Windows or a fuller featured Linux-based OS like Ubuntu.
The advantage of BrowserLinux, of course, is that there are very few running services to tie up your system, which means that you can devote most of your computer’s resources to the browser, which could come in handy on a netbook or other low power computer with limited memory.

The Queen is absolutely right to call for young people from across the Commonwealth to come together and discuss matters of global significance. Beginning with the collapse of capitalism, the end of secularism even in those very few countries that ever had it, the simple fact that China rather than America is now the most powerful country in the world, the sheer continued existence of the Commonwealth and of the institution at its heart deep into Post-Postmodernity, and the prominence of Commonwealth countries (Canada, Australia, India, South Africa) among those fighting against the arresting of economic development in the poor world and the re-restriction to the rich of secure jobs, decent wages, travel opportunities and a full diet.

Motorcycling distilled is two wheels, open road, and a map that got left behind in the last café you stopped off at. Riders of all brands have come to know the kind of freedom this brings, and Yamaha motorcycles is one of the brands bringing this to consumers in increasingly well-thought-out ways. This year's Yamaha Road Star Silverado is one of the cruisers that is doing exactly this. Purists will always look at Japanese motorcycles as inferior to American offerings, but in truth, the quality of these machines has reached a level at which mechanical problems simply do not exist. The Road Star Silverado is Yamaha motorcycles' answer to the big-bore cruisers being offered by other manufacturers, but is the kind of motorcycle that doesn't need to be the biggest on the block to earn a firm reputation.
The Road Star Silverado runs on Yamaha 's 102-cubic inch 1670cc V-twin engine, producing plenty of torque for yourself, or two-up riding through the mountains. The air-cooled Road Star Silverado gets electronic fuel injection this year, as well as the same adjustable windscreen and luggage accommodation as previous years. The EFI system on the Road Star Silverado is a step forward, assisting with cold start problems as well as adjusting fuel parameters for outside conditions such as temperature and altitude. Final drive for the Road Star Silverado is taken care of by a smooth five-speed with 5th- gear overdrive mated to a belt drive to put the power to the ground efficiently.
Extensive use of chrome on both the Road Star Silverado and Road Star Silverado S create a stunning, but not overdone look, and paint colors this year for the Road Star Silverado are a deep, rich blue. A tank-mounted speedometer has all the indicator lights built in, creating a great look for the top of the tank that you won't soon get tired of looking at. Rider and passenger floorboards and a heel/toe shifter complete the comfort package for the Yamaha Road Star Silverado, and wide, comfortable seats ensure there won't be much complaining from the back seat during your ride.
Priced at just under $13,600, the Yamaha Road Star Silverado is a fair price for a bike you won't soon get tired of. If you're a motorcycle cruiser purist who doesn't care about the Harley-Davidson lifestyle, than the Road Star Silverado will give you all the bike you want and save you some green over the offerings by American makers Harley and Victory. If all you care about is riding, and being comfortably stylish doing it, than the Road Star Silverado is just the bike for you.
