Chrome OS操作系统令人捉摸不透

This year, Microsoft and Apple are both introducing new versions of their operating systems with important changes to their user interfaces, and with a flurry of publicity. A third major company is also overhauling its PC operating system, but you probably won't hear much about it.

今年，微软（Microsoft）和苹果（Apple）两家公司都在推出各自的新版操作系统，新操作系统在用户界面上有重大变化，并进行了大肆宣传。还有一家大公司也正在测试检验它的PC操作系统，只不过你可能不会对它知之太多。

Google redesigned its PC operating system, Chrome OS. While Google is a major rival to Apple and Microsoft in things like search, smartphones and browsers, Chrome OS hasn't dented the competition in the year since it emerged. It was meant to be radically different than Windows and the Macintosh operating system, a refreshing change for a new era. But it had serious limitations, principally that it ran only apps inside a browser on a handful of special, low-powered laptops called Chromebooks and could do almost nothing when it wasn't online.

谷歌公司（Google）对它的操作系统Chrome OS进行了重新设计。虽然谷歌在搜索引擎、智能手机和浏览器等业务方面是苹果和微软的一个主要竞争对手，但是Chrome OS操作系统自诞生以来还一直未能对其竞争对手形成挑战。它的设计初衷是要成为一种与Windows和Macintosh截然不同的操作系统，开启一个带来清新变化的新时代。但是这种操作系统有着严重的局限性，主要是它只能在少量被称之为Chromebooks的低功率特殊笔记本电脑上在浏览器内运行程序，而且在无网络连接的状态下几乎毫无用武之地。
