Check Out Google's Notebook Demolition Labs
Want to be a demolition man?
The Chrome OS Notebook has been quite the cool little experiment. The fact that Google sends you a laptop to use for as long as you want to provide feedback on the Chrome OS is cool enough on its own, but the idea of an operating system that lives and breathes on the cloud is really great long-term part.
We've already seen demonstrations of the Chrome OS surviving continuously through destruction of notebook after notebook.
Now Google wants to invite you into the demo lab. No, that's not demo for demonstration, but rather demo for demolition. As Google wrote in its blog:
Are you ready to help take the Cr-48 through its paces? If you are up to this challenge, take these mean machines through explosions, carbicide, and destruction by ravenous zombies at google.com/demolab. While you're at it, you can submit an application to the Chrome notebook Pilot program.
Check out our in-depth, hands-on review of the Chrome OS Notebook here.

Awww they won't pee on it though
As much as I like this thing, the whole idea screams "1984"...
Now off to download more games on Steam.
I told them to "nuke it" and they responded "nice one....who doesn't like chemical waste?"
so what happens if someone decides to plant a virus on the server where all your files are stored?
I'll wait for a Desktop version, thanks. I HATE laptop keyboards. My fingers don't fit. Even so, I'm only using this in a virtual box for now.
ok, we get the idea about the cloud thing. but if you keep insisting,
those are crappy, worthless junk pieces of notebooks.
Out of the first 7 articles 3 of them are about Google. Google produces NOTHING and never will...they just have too much money.
Oh crud, the jump I got because I didn't check the volume level when the chainsaw came down and I'm using headphones
Thanks for the link tom.
When ever I say "Blend it" it does not show the blending it just freezes FAIL.
