Chromium OS follow up

Back in October I posted about replacing Ubuntu on my Dell Mini 9 because it was just getting too much for the poor little netbook to cope with. I went into some detail about installing Chromium OS (different to Chrome OS) which was a bit of a chore, finally installed, but then really didn't do anything for me. So I removed that and installed Joli OS instead. Joli OS is Linux based, syncronises with your JoliCloud account which allows you to have the same interface / applications / etc. on your computer and through a web interface (say, on a Windows box). It's interesting and quite nicely done, but it hasn't inspired me to make any more use of the Mini 9, which I suspect will now be heading to eBay to help fund a Google Nexus 10.
